One Nation has announced plans to slash migration by more than 750,000 places over three years, in what would be a major 'reset' of the country's migration system.


International students, recent graduates, and their family members would be hardest hit, with places reduced by almost 470,000 over three years.

Temporary skilled visas would be cut by just over 100,000, and family members would no longer be eligible to receive visas.

The policy has been criticised by the government, opposition, and some industry leaders.
