Use of these components is not to obscure the ability to read their original functions and spatial qualities.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              2. Any commercial adaptive re-use must enhance the conservation of the heritage values of the precinct.

Consideration could also be given to reinstatement of historic artefacts from the islands which were transferred to Spectacle Island for storage in 1992.
