More people are leaving Australia permanently for opportunities overseas, despite a surge in the number migrating down under.

A total of 67,853 people left Australia permanently during 2005-06, up from 62,606 the previous year and 59,078 in 2003-04, Immigration Department figures show.

The figures contrast with arrivals in the same period, which increased to 131,593 in the year to June - up more than 8,000 on the previous year.

Almost one in five migrants was from Britain, which accounted for 23,290 new arrivals to Australia during the year.
