is the problem you want the Deputy to be a shareholder rather than work for you on a casual ?

Partly yes Mike.
As i mentioned,if finding a suitable partner fails,
We will have to raise more money and purchase the Colliery between us 2.

Anyone want to buy some Pork and Bacon?

Mike,
Thanks for the suggestion to post on the Mining History List.Peter posted the message for me,and i`ve been surprised where all these Mining consultants have come from,
Some just fishing for information packs,but just this minute come off the phone with a good Geordie lad,who knows of a Deputy,who might be interested,also some other useful contacts.
They don`t need to be wealthy to join us,but could well be afterwards.

What part of the country has your friend a Colliery Morrisey?

Here in South Wales,we have to shadow a Deputy,while doing the course,then Mines Rescue come out to access ones competence,the initial induction is £360,and the same fee each time Mines Rescue comes out to access ones work.

Initally we were told the course could be done in a few months,then it would take 9-12mths,then it could`nt be done in Wales,as we have no Longwall faces,as the training modules state experience on these is needed,and we`d have to go to Daw Mill to gain this,
What do you expect when consultants of UK coal helped to draw up this training schedule.
But since our contact with HMIM,these modules have been slimmed down to suit our type of mining,as he said,No point in sending a Deputy from Dawmill down to South Wales to supervise repairing a Drift on notched timber,as he would have a clue.
If your butty is having difficulty with the course ,because of these modules,tell him to contact his HMIM,we cannot praise ours enough in sorting this out.

Regarding showing the HMIM he is capable of managing the Colliery,thats the whole purpose of the exercise of gaining the Ticket.
