Government suitable sites for deep-water ports, referring to Sydney harbour, said he thinks the people of Sydney have in their harbour one of the-finest heritages ever bestowed upon a community, but he was astonished to find its commercial development was hindered by a system of port administration which was almost one hundred years behind time.
