I don't believe we can blame the immigration problem we currently have on the government. Looking at the last several applications, the prospectives never made any contact at all. That is not Dame Miestra's fault or the fault of any Talossan.
With that said, one way that I know of to spur activity is to make contact with Talossans outside of Wittenberg. I personally have been emailing, Discording, PM'ing (yes I know that's Witt), Facebooking, etc. formerly active Talossans just to keep in contact with them. One eminent Talossan lost her seat on the UC due to inactivity, but if people knew why she went inactive (read: off of Wittenberg) I can bet she would have kept her seat. Another prominent Talossan lost not only his son, but another close family member and just recently, his job. That keeps him away - his life is tough. A third prominent Talossan just got married and is moving to Europe. A fourth worries about his job as a federal employee. I know these things about my fellow Talossans because I reach out to them. We all need to be doing this. I imagine that if more people showed interest in our fellow citizens outside the constraints of Witt, we'd find some of them coming back to activity.
Oh, and this should NOT be something the government is required to do. It should be something we all WANT to do because Talossa is a family.
