We are currently working on a scoping document to assist in focusing our on-going work. This larger document will contain a review of relevant international and New Zealand literature, and will outline proposals for future research. The current paper outlines the motivation and scope of our enquiry, and discusses the three key questions that we plan to pursue.

The final question looks at who is moving and whether it matters for regional labour market adjustment.
