He intervened in the discussion of laws on the establishment of a military school, on the position and advancement of officers and military pensions. He also proposed solutions to various issues related to industry and finance.

It is at the top of the twenty-three signatories of the proposal was intended to establish a protective tariff for the cotton industry.

This association were born all these committees, these workshops apprenticeships, manufacturing these schools.

In 1839, the member was appointed government commissioner at the Banque de Belgique for the loan of four million Belgian francs. French shareholders wished to request the dissolution and liquidation of the company. Leander Desmaisières much to change the resolution. In return, shareholders spontaneously proposed to the king to his appointment as director of the bank.

He was convinced that the major powers of the world made rather generous conditions in the 1839 Tready of London and thus he voted in favor with reservations which were granted in part by the conference, particularly as regards the boundaries of Luxembourg the following gauging barrels fixing entitlement to the Scheldt and the Terneuzen canal.
