The number of international students studying in Australia could be slashed under a new plan by the Albanese government.
The Sunday Telegraph reported that under the proposal, the number of visas will be capped, and students taxed.
The number of international students studying in Australia between January and August rose 31 per cent to 725,000, fuelling the growing rental crisis.
That figure is compounded by Australia’s predicted uptake of 520,000 migrants by the end of the year.
Details of the plan will be revealed when the government releases its migration strategy next month.
