Brett Hosking, Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF) President, Victorian Farmers Federation (VFF), Media Release, 2 October 2025
“We’ve consistently told TCV they must take a people-first approach and genuinely engage in a meaningful manner.”
“Handing landholders a letter saying they will compulsory access their property to do land surveys flanked by a lawyer is completely tone-deaf and will only further add to mounting opposition to this project.”
“This isn’t engagement, it’s coercion. VNI West is a failed project and it’s time the government went back to the drawing board.”
