The Department of Home Affairs released a Designated Area Migration Agreement (DAMA) between the Commonwealth and Greater Shepparton City Council for the Goulburn Valley region, signed in 2021. The deed establishes a framework to enable overseas worker recruitment in designated occupations to address local labour shortages. The agreement includes 11 schedules covering particulars, objectives, eligible occupations with maximum numbers, qualifications and experience requirements, concessions to the Temporary Skilled Migration Income Threshold (TSMIT), English language requirement waivers, permanent residence pathways with age concessions, nomination requirements, letters of endorsement, and support services. It also incorporates a confidentiality deed and outlines the responsibilities of both the Commonwealth and the designated area representative, dispute resolution mechanisms, and governance provisions including termination clauses and conflict-of-interest protocols.
