asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will request the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board to ensure that in future the annual accounts of the board circulated to bondholders are presented in such a manner that bondholders can assess for themselves the success or otherwise of the management of the port and the security or otherwise of their investment.
