Should the government increase or decrease the amount of temporary work visas given to high-skilled immigrant workers?

New Zealand needs to support the workers that we have here in NZ, both Kiwi or foreign and give them what they need to make NZ more attractive for them to stay. I left NZ for five years to create a large enough deposit to buy a house, it is really bloody hard to do well for yourself finacially in NZ, leaving is almost a requirement for those that don't come from a rich family.

Whether we like it or not, NZ is in desperate need of high skilled workers so if that means immigrant workers then so be it. Increasing temporary work visas seams like a solution but the government is taking advantage of these people. This visa allows them to stay and work in NZ for a short term, doing jobs other New Zealanders can’t do but making it an extremely long, difficult and expensive process if they decide to stay in NZ as a resident. You can’t increase ‘temporary work visas’ but not support these people on a pathway to residency.

Increase, but New Zealanders should be considered for any job position before turning to overseas employment. I agree with increasing it, but not to the detriment of NZ citizens.
