Thanks to all those who supplied advice on fixing the brake shoes.
Managed to straighten the offending metal bits and now have  an
excellent brake shop (Wrights Clutch and Barke Service ; Lismore)
re-bonding friction material to same.
Yes they are made by AL-KO
Yes AL-KO are unable/unwilling to supply or help.

Cheers
Mark

No proper answer but I can give clues.   :)

AL-KO manufacture in Victoria, including brakes.  They have a website:

http://www.alko.com.au

I don't know if the brakes are compatible but it's a place to start.
There 
will be an agent in your nearest large town.  He will probably be your
next 
best move.

They can be VERY slow.
