Summary

That this House notes that the RJB Mining Company is seeking ú73 million in financial aid from the Government for the purpose of subsidising deep mine coal production; is concerned at the assertion that failure to secure such subsidy will result in the closure of the remaining deep mines in the North East of Yorkshire; believes, however, that deep mine coal production can best be safeguarded by achieving a reduction in open-cast production; and, therefore, urges the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions, to aschew granting consent for any further applications to opencast coal, by RJB Mining.
