Education Minister Jason Clare emphasized that the cap is meant to create a better and fairer education system while addressing rising public discontent about housing costs.
Clare mentioned that the number of international students enrolled at universities had increased by about 10 percent since the pandemic, contrasting with a 50 percent rise in private vocational providers.
The government seeks to balance international student enrollments, noting the importance of limiting them to maintain quality while preventing exploitation of the education system.
Concerns about migration contributing to soaring housing costs are underscored by a recent poll, where 69 percent of respondents felt negatively impacted by increasing population pressures.
