Government Ministers Visiting Midlands Power Plants Today

Four ministers will meet with staff affected by the closures.

A team of government ministers is coming to the midlands today to meet staff at Bord na Móna and ESB. 

It follows last week's decision about the closures of the two power stations at Shannonbridge and Lanesboro in Offaly and Longford.

Climate Action Minister Richard Bruton says they'll be briefing those affected, on the Government's plans to manage the transition from 'the brown past to the green future'.
