Tata Steel: Carwyn Jones backs 'any viable' steel option

First Minister Carwyn Jones said the Welsh Government will support "any viable option" to secure the future of steel working in Wales.

The assembly is set to be recalled to discuss the future of the Port Talbot steelworks, where thousands of jobs are at risk.

Mr Jones said ministers in Cardiff Bay would work with the UK Government and management and unions but said the Welsh Government did not have the money to buy the Port Talbot plant or keep it going.
