PRIVATE COALMINING IN SOUTH WALES

  • Session: 1992-93
  • Date tabled: 24.02.1993
  • Primary sponsor: Davies, Ron
  • Sponsors:

    That this House calls upon the President of the Board of Trade and the Secretary of State for Wales to condemn the disgraceful behaviour of certain private coalmine owners in South Wales who are openly flouting employment law and contractual agreements with employees,and cutting corners on health and safety provisions; and condemns, moreover, the backdoor attempts by British Coal to privatise production at Tower Colliery in the Cynon Valley by contracting-out to commercial companies the surface operations at that colliery, a move which will result in job losses and a scandalous waste of taxpayers' money in the form of recent investment in surface machinery and equipment, the benefit of which will be enjoyed not by the taxpayers but by the private companies contracted by British Coal, many of which have recently been created by former British Coal staff and managers eager to cash-in on the prospect of the privatisation of the industry.
