A region wide appeal was heard as the Land Leases Appeal Board confirmed a reappraisal of rents in a case brought by the Public Servants and Widows Association. The argument centered on whether the association can be paid higher rents due to increased burdens, with several lawyers for the association and government officials present. The matter concerns residential land and possible taxation considerations, as widows and dependents seek relief and an interview with Premier.
