How did Immigration Restriction Act 1901 restrict immigration?
It was introduced into Australia because Australians wanted to keep Australia all white. This immigration restriction act would let the government have control of all the immigration to Australia. From the Immigration restriction act, a dictation test was developed to prevent non-whites into the country. This Dictation test was often 50 words from a scientific text book ( meaning that it would feature hard to spell scientific words). This passage that was dictated by the immigration officer was in any European language. If a immigrant somewhat passes, then the officer would give the test again in a different language until it would pass. The immigrants were usually pacific islanders & asians.
