We’re fighting their attempts to get around the ban on coal mining.
Companies are looking for ways around Labour’s ban on new coal projects. The Welsh government must stand firm against companies who want to keep piling up profit from fossil fuels.

We have already challenged the illegal extraction of coal in Ffos-y-fran in south Wales. Good Law Project will maintain a close eye on the mining industry, so that local communities are protected from the devastating health impacts of coal extraction, and so that we are all protected from coal’s devastating climate impacts. Let’s keep coal in the ground!
