Family Transactions In Land
In a recent communication to Federated Farmers, the Minister of Rehabilitation, Mr Skinner, stated that he would always give consideration to a request that Section 51 of the Servicemen's Settlement and Land Sales Act be not operated in a genuine family. transaction of the sale of land. If. for instance, a father wished to sell a farm property to his son, the Minister was prepared to give an assurance that Section 51 of the Act would not be operated to interfere with the transaction. Such an assurance, however, the Minister added, was always given without prejudice to subsequent action under Part 11 of the Act. That condition was a safeguard only, and was not to be interpreted to mean that the Crown would take Part 11 action over the properties concerned.,
