Australian Migration Legislative Instruments
Legislative instruments are subordinate legislation made by the Minister under powers delegated by the Migration Act 1958 or the Migration Regulations 1994. They are registered on the Federal Register of Legislation (legislation.gov.au) and are subject to parliamentary disallowance. They supplement the Regulations — for example, specifying the exact occupations on the skills lists or defining the geographic boundaries of regional areas.
