It is probably fair to say that they do not have much power to mandate that particular disclosures should be made. If international accounting standards do not require those disclosures then I would imagine it is very difficult for an auditor to say, "Look, we expect you to make additional disclosures over and above the ones that are currently required by accounting rules".
