The Australian Government is strengthening the requirements to become an Australian citizen. This includes:
Increasing the general residence requirement, which means an applicant for Australian citizenship will need to demonstrate a minimum of four years permanent residence immediately prior to their application for citizenship
Introducing an English language test, which means applicants will need to demonstrate competent English language listening, speaking, reading and writing skills before being able to sit the citizenship test
Strengthening the Australian Values Statement to include reference to allegiance to Australia and require applicants to make an undertaking to integrate into and contribute to the Australian community
Strengthening the test for Australian citizenship through the addition of new test questions about Australian values, and the privileges and responsibilities of Australian citizenship
Introducing a requirement for applicants to demonstrate their integration into the Australian community
Strengthening the Pledge of commitment as a citizen of the Commonwealth of Australia in the Australian Citizenship Act 2007 to refer to allegiance to Australia; and extending the requirement for individuals aged 16 years and over to make the Pledge to all streams of citizenship by application, including citizenship by descent, adoption and resumption.
Subject to the passage of legislation required to enact some of the measures, the changes will come into effect, and apply to applications made from the date of the Government's announcement on 20 April 2017.
The changes apply to citizenship applications lodged on and after 20 April 2017. The changes do not apply to applications made before 20 April 2017.
Applicants will receive communication on the implementation of these measures and any additional information and documentation that may be required to support their application.
这个是新政入籍考试前必须听说读写 通过才可以考入籍试吗？已经执行了吗？

估计4月20日之后提交的申请都停止处理了，除了那些满足新的条件的申请。
等到上述改变在参众两会被通过时（或者不通过），这些申请会被按照新的条件拒绝/退回（或者按照原来的规则处理）。

新的细则和系统是预计 2017 年底才实施

就是说满足新的条件的申请还照常办理, 对吗? 要是这样就太好了.

什么时候议会有决定啊？

参众两会开会的日期可以看这里

基本每个月都有吧。不过政府先要明确自己的提案，提出具体改动，然后才会提交到议会讨论，修改，表决。
另外5月基本在讨论财政预算，个人估计最早8月吧

那这个新政还没开始的吧

看你对开始的定义是怎样的，对于4月20以后和以前提交的申请，对待方式已经不同了。
