The Nationals were pushing for the seasonal worker program to be expanded to Asian countries, but the Liberals squashed the plan due to concerns over how it would hurt relationships with Pacific countries.

Now the prime minister says the plan isn't dead, as Nationals MPs confirm they're still keen on it

There wouldn't be a need for seasonal workers from overseas if Australian seasonal workers weren't so viciously discriminated against with savage penalties and massive piles of red tape. This severely constrains the mobility of labour in Australia. Removing these constraints would greatly reduce regional labour shortages.

Aussies with time on their hands prefer the DOLE.
