How did it affect the amount of people who came to Australia?

The people who came to Australia would never be able to get into Australia because they’d never pass the dictation test no matter how much they knew, so a lot of them didn’t come back to Australia because it was a waste of their money. There weren’t too many people who then came to Australia.

How has the Policy affected the Population of Australia?

The population of Australia wasn’t growing at a very fast rate during the White Australia policy. The amount of men in Australia shortened after the World Wars and the White Australia policy was abolished and the population grew by an extra 3 million in 15 years.
