The Minister for Trade and Tourism, Senator the Hon Don Farrell, requested the Joint Standing Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Trade (JSCFADT), through its Trade Subcommittee, to inquire into Australia’s tourism and international education sectors. The inquiry explored the challenges and opportunities presented to both sectors since the reopening of Australia’s borders.
On 19 October 2023, the Trade Subcommittee tabled its interim report, titled ‘Quality and Integrity – the Quest for Sustainable Growth’: Interim Report into International Education’. On 1 October 2024, the Trade Subcommittee published its final report, titled ‘Are we there yet?’: From recovery to resilience – opportunities and challenges for Australia’s tourism sector‘.
