Well done CAN, this issue is too important to played like a political football.
We in Swansea, Neath and Port Talbot are interested in opening up a wider debate regarding the production of steel in Port Talbot which is where the coal will end up.
TATA steel has applied for UK funding to help finance the installation of electric furnaces, this must be considered as an answer to problem otherwise the coal will simply be imported from abroad.
We are seeking to engage with residents, industry, trade unions, local and national governments, protest groups and anyone else wanting to take part in meaningful discussion to ensure a just transition to greener, healthier future for all. This will initially take the form of a people’s assembly, details to follow.

Have you ever visted South Wales …?? I doubt it with these comments. Port Talbot steel works is 20 mins away from Aberpergwm colliery and probably pumps out more pollution. ..the sky’s are orange on some nights …

Comments on: CAN instructs Barristers to take Welsh Government and the Coal Authority to task over Aberpergwm colliery extension.
