Labor backs new immigration policy in Parliament
Mr Daly chairs the parliamentary Labor Party on immigration, arguing the changed policy will expand entry and citizenship for about 2,100 Asians already in Australia. The five year eligibility waiting period remains, but only highly qualified entrants are admitted, with safeguards against mass Asian worker influx and a warned risk of open door sentiment.

Housing agreement to be extended across five years
The Commonwealth State Housing agreement, due to expire on June 30, will be extended for five more years. Minister Dame Annabelle Rankin told the Senate she would introduce legislation to authorize advances on substantially the same terms. State Housing Ministers had accepted the offer in principle at their Adelaide meeting earlier this month. Future housing loans would carry interest at the long term Commonwealth bond rate at the time of each advance, with options for the States to use the concession as they see fit.
