Last week's Budget saw little in the way of support for IT skills and education, from both the Federal Government and the Opposition Leader, Tony Abbott's budget reply. State governments are still finding it hard to get enough skilled workers, though the job ad deficit seems to be continuing both in the public and private sectors.
Another week gone and, while Australian IT jobs are on the rise, the Federal Government has announced a temporary cut-off of skilled migrations for both independent and sponsored workers until the end of June.
