अष्ट्रेलियाले योग्यता पुगेका आप्रवासीहरुलाई नागरिकता दिने गर्छ । सबै योग्यता पुगेपछि नागरिकताका लागि छुट्टै परिक्षा दिनुपर्छ । आगामी नोभेम्बरदेखि नागरिकताका लागि लिइने परिक्षाको प्रश्नहरुमा हेरफेर गरिने भएको छ । अब यी २० प्रश्नमा अष्ट्रेलियाको मुल्यमान्यता झल्किने ५ प्रश्नहरु थप्न लागिएको हो । सहि उत्तर छान्ने सुविधासहितको २० वटा प्रश्नको परिक्षामा पास हुन ७५ प्रतिशत नम्बर ल्याउनेपर्छ । तर, राष्ट्रिय मुल्यमान्यता प्रश्नहरुको उत्तर भने सबै सहि नै हुनुपर्नेछ । नया प्रश्नसहितको प्रश्नपत्रहरु आगामी नोभेम्बर १५ बाट कार्यन्वयनमा आउनेछन् ।
कार्यवाहक अध्यागमनमन्त्री एलन टुजले भन्नुभयो -‘हाम्रो अष्ट्रेलियन मान्यता महत्वपुर्ण छ, तीनै मान्यताले देश निर्माणमा भूमिका खेलेको छ, त्यहि कारणले नै मानिसहरु अष्ट्रेलियाको नागरिक बन्न चाहान्छन् ।’
मन्त्री टुजका अनुसार थपिएका प्रश्नहरुले नागरिक बन्न चाहानेहरुलाई अष्ट्रेलियाको मुल्यमान्यता बुझ्न सहयोग गर्नेछ । टुजले वाक स्वतन्त्रता, आपसी सद्भाव, अवसरको समानता, प्रजातन्त्र र विधीको शासन नै अष्ट्रेलियाको मुल्यमान्यता रहेको समेत बताउनुभयो ।
