The vessel has not entered into a dry dock facility for inspections or major repairs for more than two decades. The underwater condition of the vessel is unknown and poses an unacceptable risk.
vs
The ship has had three underwater inspections and several above water surveys.
Nearly 50 formal meetings have been held between NSW Maritime and the vessel’s owners to raise concerns about its deteriorating condition.

I have written a letter to the NSW Minister for Heritage
The basic problems I see here:
Without some sort of proof about the inspections/surveys no outsider can tell if these really happend or are legitimate. I would recommend uploading them somewhere and linking them.
The goverment talks about nearly 50 meetings with you, yet you don’t acknowledge or detail one of them. For an outsider it looks like you ignored these.
The lengthy description of the state of the dock around the ship (that you don’t own) and interior furniture / machinery are irrelevant for the safety of YOUR ship.
The ship looks REALLY BAD in the video - there is rust everywhere. When was the last paint job? A decade ago? I’m not sure if a normal person or tourist would like to get on such a ship in the first place…
meetings with you […] you don’t acknowledge […] you ignored these.
you don’t own […] safety of YOUR ship

I’m a volunteer at a museum. To answer most of these points you will need to contact the charity foundation, and make sure you don’t mix my words and theirs (eg writing a letter to a minister is something I have done, having meetings with maritime is something they have done). In the background I am trying to encourage them to comment on these items too.
There is a lot of conflicting information here:
