Work to remove old coal tips or make them safe could be “devastating” for some of Wales' rarest species of wildlife, it has been claimed.

The safety of coal tips is under review after a major landslide in 2020.

But ecology experts have said they feel left out of discussions, even though these sites were home to rare and previously unknown species.

Tend to agree with you here. At the very least, there should be a considerable amount of options for the locals to have a say in the projects.

Failing that, at least take what the experts have to say into account.
