http://www.immigration.govt.nz/migrant/general/generalinformation/news/ltsslreview.htm Long Term Skill Shortage List (LTSSL) biannual review Tuesday, 30 June 2009 The biannual review of the LTSSL, which is administered by the Department of Labour, sees eight occupations removed from the list. The list comprises occupations deemed to be in long term shortage in the New Zealand labour market. The removal of the occupations from the list is the result of extensive consultation with industry groups, other stakeholders and relevant government agencies. Removal of occupations from the LTSSL does not mean employers cannot recruit migrants in those occupations. An employer can demonstrate genuine attempts to recruit a suitable New Zealander, as is the process with all other occupations. If, after the labour market is tested, Immigration New Zealand is satisfied no suitable New Zealanders are available in that location then temporary work permits will still be granted. The occupations being removed from the LTSSL with effect from Thursday, 2 July 2009 are: * Motor Mechanic (General) * Motor Mechanic (Auto Air Conditioning Technicians) * Motor Mechanic (Motor Vehicle Inspectors) * Plumber (General) * Fitter Welder * Diesel Motor Mechanic * Carpenter/Joiner * Cabinet Maker.
