– Ban on cruise liners at Garden Island

The following 2011RA media release was quoted in the Wentworth Courier  ‘Clover Moore disappointed by ban on cruise liners’ (5th April)

The 2011 Residents’ Association supports our Navy at the Garden Island location and the Hawke review’s recommendation to limit cruise ships will ensure the navy remain in Sydney Harbour. The Navy, operating at Garden Island, represent one of the last vestiges of Sydney’s working harbour.

The 5000 Navy personnel and contractors at Garden Island are an important part of the history of Kings Cross and workers contribute to our local community and businesses.
