Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) The ACT is allocated a fixed number of visa nomination places each financial year by the Australian Government. Skilled migrants can apply with the ACT Government for ACT nomination for a Skilled Nominated (subclass 190) and Skilled Work Regional (subclass 491) visa. ACT nomination triggers a visa invitation from the Department of Home Affairs, it does not guarantee a migration outcome. The number of approvals for visa subclass 491 nomination applications, per financial year from 2018-19 to 2021-22, is included in the table below.
