NORTH LIVERPOOL'S fortunes are vital to the future economic success of the city, a council inquiry into unemployment has found. It has recommended that Liverpool and Sefton councils and other agencies commission a future development of the area, which includes Anfield, Everton, Walton, and Kirkdale. The inquiry, led by Cllr Beatrice Fraenkel, found that, “North Liverpool is the key to the future of our city…the unrealised potential of the people and spaces of north Liverpool is just waiting to be activated.”

Regarding the numerous problems, relating to the crowd behaviour and complaints associated with the selling of alcoholic drinks, at the Oldham Arena. Under Public Order requirements which cover football games, theatre performances and associted venues all enforced rigidly with the full force of all the agencies involved. There appears a great reluctance from the Liverpool City Council, also its licensing authority to involve in serving any form of notice. In any attempt to address problems by ammending or the threat to withdraw, the license on Health and Safety, Public Order requirements at this venue. Remember the Matthew St, debacle, the cancellation on Public Safety issues was given as a prime reason and a concern by the Council. Maybe the concession for the provision of alcoholic refreshments etc, at the Arena, possibly has something to do with this, I ask the question how was the concession negotiated and to whom was it gifted!!
I want £100,000 from each of you or you're all fired!!!
