Unfair Criticism of Land Settlement Commission Debate
In a heated discussion Mr Leask defended the Land Settlement Commission against claims it did little for ex servicemen. He noted one third of Lima Yin Barun and Greenbank servicemen were locals and that the Commission sought the interests of ex servicemen across Victoria. He argued the commission cannot compulsorily acquire land and that war service first preference for blocks is determined by points, not ballot.
