Atlantic Recycling is expected to go to court in December charged with environmental offences.
A company that donated thousands of pounds to the new First Minister of Wales’ election campaign is set to go to court after being charged with environmental offences.
Atlantic Recycling, which is part of a company that donated to Vaughan Gething during his bid to be the new leader of the Welsh Labour government, is facing two charges of failing to comply with the requirements of environmental permit conditions.
A four-day free trial of the facts, known as a Newton hearing, was set for December 16 at Cardiff Crown Court on Thursday.
Atlantic Recycling’s holding company, Dauson Environmental Group, donated £200,000 to Mr Gething’s successful campaign to replace Mark Drakeford as leader.
Declarations on the Electoral Commission website show the First Minister’s campaign raised at least £254,600.
In comparison, his rival Jeremy Miles raised at least £58,800.
