Talk:National Coal Board

Aberfan Disaster?
Why is there no mention of the Aberfan disaster and controversy in here? It was a pretty major event in recent British history.

Problem at end of "Formation and History"?
Something seems to have gone wrong at the end of this section. In the text: "With the passing of the Coal Industry Act 1994, the industry-wide administrative functions of British Coal were transferred to a new Coal Authority. Its economic assets were privatised, the English mining operations being merged with RJB Mining to form UK Coal plc. By the time of privatisation, only 15 pits remained in production.Duty of the Authority with respect to safety. (1)It shall be the duty of the Authority—..."

"...15 pits remaining in production." seems to finish an idea. "Duty of the Authority..." seems to start something completely new. I don't know what the intent was and I don't know enough about the subject to attempt a correction. OldBoar (talk) 18:22, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
