What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the impact of Ffos-y-Fran on coal imports into the United Kingdom?
Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Climate Change
We have not made any assessment of the impact of Ffos-y-Frân on coal imports into the United Kingdom. From the grant of planning permission for coal extraction at Ffos-y-Frân in 2005, the expiry of that permission was always due to occur by 2022. This was transparent and well known and there is therefore no need for any impact assessment now. Our Coal policy issued in March 2021 is clear: we wish to bring the extraction and use of coal to a managed end.
