The Commonwealth aimed to reclaim rural land near Canberra for national benefit rather than private gain. Land leased back for grazing or agriculture could be withdrawn by the Commonwealth with compensation for improvements, ensuring future development of Canberra and other purposes. In 1942 the government offered lapsing lessees the chance to renew under tenancies without withdrawal clauses.
