The Coal Authority has a legal duty under the Coal Mining Subsidence Act 1991, to repair properties damaged by coal mining subsidence in the five coalfield regions. The works are funded by grant in aid from central government, in order that the Coal Authority can discharge its statutory duty.

This includes government policy, government plans and strategy, parliamentary activity of parliamentarians and general government business from the UK Government and the devolved administrations of the Scottish and Welsh parliaments.

1. Timeliness of alerts (Coal Authority mentions)

3. Delivery of training and refresher training
4. Access to technical support
5. Account management
