Australian migration scheme

Thanks to the GA for tipoff to BBC News item about a new scheme in Australia which aims to deal with some of the issues that are facing the country.

Residents of Sydney will be offered 7000 Australian dollars to move out of the city and to rural New South Wales.
There is a shortage of people in this area, which has also suffered from prolonged drought recently.

You can read more information on the Regional Relocation Grant (RRG) scheme in NSW here....

Would £5000 or so be enough to tempt you to move ?

Spotted this whilst out here, asked a few people at work here and the majority of them would be more than happy to take the money!think I may use this for AS and IB next year as a case study!

Thanks for responding Will
Why do you think they would be "more than happy ?" - when I moved house it cost me at least £5000 in various fees so any grant would have been swallowed up with that...
