A new report has found only 1.38% of visas are for skilled residents.

The Office of the Auditor-General has been looking into Immigration New Zealand, and says a greater focus needs to be put on attracting skilled residents.

Senior Performance Auditor Lucy Mouland told Mike Hosking that if the agency improved its systems, it could give New Zealand a competitive edge internationally.

She says skilled residents are the people our country needs to meet future challenges, so more must be done to draw them in.

Immigration New Zealand has released a statement welcoming the report, saying they accept the findings in principle and are looking into how they can implement them in line with INZ’s current work programme, priorities and resources.
