And here lies the problem with all of the consultations on everything from general policy to what kind of toilet paper to install in JTs private washroom being held by the government in lieu of any real action.

The government has commissioned this panel of so called economic experts (called the Advisory Council on Economic Growth) at the expense of the taxpayer to "Advise" the government which they have now done.  One of the recommendations is to boost immigration from the current 300,000 to 450,000 over 5 years. The government has now chosen to ignore the advice of this committee they themselves created to provide expertise the government lacked without any reason presented to explain why they are doing so.

The rub is that the Advisory panel had many other recommendations that the government would like to keep and will justify by referring to this panel.  This will be difficult if they continue to cherry pick recommendations without explanation on why some were omitted.
