Would you like to submit any specific feedback on the proposals within Cockatoo Island / Wareamah Draft Master Plan?

Having arrived by airplane with bike and tent, I am not confident this plan allows campers with own tent anymore. Security for tent belongings whilst cycling Sydney, or asleep, is also of concern. This activity has been a family highlight which we would not want to lose. It has made the Harbour accessible to us from Adelaide.
