Prospective bidders for Liverpool's New Chinatown site have been asked to sign non-disclosure agreements.
The Great George Street Project Limited (GGSPL) entered into administration following a High Court hearing in March. The application, brought by Maghull businessman and creditor Francis Molloy, was the latest twist in a long running saga that was first launched seven years ago.
The first property scheme, launched by businessman Peter McInnes and the New Chinatown company, collapsed after a complex legal hearing at Preston Crown court in 2016. New company Great George Street Developments launched a second scheme in 2017.
