Scunthorpe

On Tuesday in the Senedd Morgan made a statement on steel funding, and whether Port Talbot would miss out on its share of £2.5bn set aside for steel by the UK government because the money will end up in Scunthorpe instead.

Over Easter the UK government passed an emergency law to keep Scunthorpe's blast furnaces firing because the plant was threatened with closure.

Morgan has written to the business secretary in London urging him to make sure Wales gets a substantial share of that £2.5bn because of worries it will be used in Scunthorpe rather than for longer term steel development.

David Rees - whose Aberavon constituency is home to the Port Talbot works - called for a "fair and just transition" and spoke of the anger and disillusionment of workers in the town that the UK government had kept Scunthorpe's blast furnaces going but not theirs.

The government says it has secured the raw materials needed to keep the British Steel plant at Scunthorpe going "for the coming months" into the summer.
