State lands revenue wasted on housing

I AM appalled at the Government’s recent announcement giving up State-owned lands for cheap housing.

This land is owned by the State that's you and me and here is the Government giving our assets away for free. This at a time when the Government has cut back on resources to the most needy, when there are over 50,000 on the local government housing lists, and when disabled people's grants are curtailed because of lack of Government resources.

Surely it is financially and morally wrong to be doing this.
