As the White Australia policy was gradually dismantled in the 1960s and formally abolished in 1973, governments developed a policy of multiculturalism to manage Australia's increasing cultural diversity. In August 1973 Labor's immigration minister Al Grassby announced his vision of <i>A Multi‐Cultural Society for the Future</i> and a policy of cultural pluralism based on principles of social cohesion, equality of opportunity and cultural identity soon gained bipartisan support. The Galbally Report on migrant services in 1978 recommended that: "every person should be able to maintain his or her culture without prejudice or disadvantage and should be encouraged to understand and embrace other cultures." In response to the report, the Fraser government expanded funding for settlement services, established the Australian Institute of Multicultural Affairs (AIMA), funded multicultural and community language education programs in schools and established the multi-lingual Special Broadcasting Service (SBS).

In 1988, the opposition Leader, John Howard called for the abandonment of multiculturalism, a reduction in Asian immigration, and a focus on 'One Australia'. In the same year, the government's FitzGerald review of immigration recommended a sharper economic focus in the selection of immigrants. In 1989, the Hawke government released its <i>National Agenda for a Multicultural Australia</i> which endorsed respect for cultural diversity and the need for settlement services, but indicated that pluralism was limited by the need for "an overriding and unifying commitment to Australia".<sup id="cite_ref-Koleth-2010_550-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Koleth-2010-550"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>550<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1237032888/mw-parser-output/.tmulti">.mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner{display:flex;flex-direction:column}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{display:flex;flex-direction:row;clear:left;flex-wrap:wrap;width:100%;box-sizing:border-box}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{margin:1px;float:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .theader{clear:both;font-weight:bold;text-align:center;align-self:center;background-color:transparent;width:100%}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbcaption{background-color:transparent}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-left{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-right{text-align:right}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .text-align-center{text-align:center}@media all and (max-width:720px){.mw-parser-output .tmulti .thumbinner{width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;max-width:none!important;align-items:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow{justify-content:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle{float:none!important;max-width:100%!important;box-sizing:border-box;text-align:center}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .tsingle .thumbcaption{text-align:left}.mw-parser-output .tmulti .trow>.thumbcaption{text-align:center}}@media screen{html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .tmulti .multiimageinner img{background-color:white}}</style><div class="thumb tmulti tleft"><div class="thumbinner multiimageinner" style="width:204px;max-width:204px"><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:202px;max-width:202px"><div class="thumbimage"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg/200px-Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="133" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg/300px-Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg/400px-Cabramatta_Pai_Lau_Gate_in_Freedom_Plaza.jpg 2x" data-file-width="5184" data-file-height="3456" /></a></span></div><div class="thumbcaption">The Pai Lau Gate in the ethnically diverse suburb of Cabramatta in Sydney</div></div></div><div class="trow"><div class="tsingle" style="width:202px;max-width:202px"><div class="thumbimage"><span typeof="mw:File"><a href="/wiki/File:(1)Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg/200px-%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg" decoding="async" width="200" height="138" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg/300px-%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg/400px-%281%29Blacktown_Mosque-1.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1432" data-file-height="991" /></a></span></div><div class="thumbcaption">A <a href="/wiki/Mosque" title="Mosque">mosque</a> in <a href="/wiki/Blacktown" title="Blacktown">Blacktown</a></div></div></div></div></div> <p>Multicultural programs continued to expand between 1986 and 1996 with an emphasis on addressing disadvantage in migrant communities as well as settlement services for recent migrants.<sup id="cite_ref-Koleth-2010_550-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Koleth-2010-550"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>550<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> James Walter argues that the Hawke and Keating governments (1983–96) also promoted high migration as a means of improving Australia's competitive advantage in a globalised market.<sup id="cite_ref-551" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-551"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>551<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1996, Pauline Hanson, a newly elected independent member of parliament, called for a cut in Asian immigration and an end to multiculturalism.
