下面是给政府的建议(部分):
Recommendations
Safety recommendations:
1. Critical incident policy needs to be investigated across CRICOS providers, and such policy should be lodged with the regulatory body and assessed against the explanatory guide
2. Police and other emergency services in each state should be made aware of the existence of the ‘critical incident policy’ to ensure that the procedures in this policy are activated immediately by the education provider.
3. The police in each state need to be provided with professional development that includes cultural awareness and awareness of the particular issues (such as visa concerns) faced by different cultures and international students which would impact on non-reporting, not trusting government or the police.
4. The community and government need to be more informed about the working hours, and lifestyles of international students in their communities, in order to address the needs for safer public transport late at night, both in inner suburbs and in outer suburban areas as well as safer areas surrounding train stations and bus and tram stops. (This may include adopting measures such as in Sydney or reinstating staff on train stations after hours and on weekends).
5. The Commonwealth government needs to make changes to legislation to ensure that safety information & police familiarization sessions are compulsory items in orientation sessions and that attendance at these sessions is compulsory for all international students.
Accommodation recommendations
6. that all states amend the tenancy legislation to provide a section that deals exclusively with student accommodation, regardless of affiliation to an education institution, that has a national set of requirements similar to that of renting, with specific regard to the housing and financial needs and circumstances of students.
that all states conduct an audit of student accommodation providers ensuring that the current tenancy law is adequately being adhered to at all times, with adequate penalties that will prevent student accommodation providers from disregarding their obligations under the relevant Acts.
