A protest by Pembrokeshire health protesters Save Withybush Action Team, due to take place outside the Senedd next week, has been deferred.

However, some protesters are still planning to make their voices heard (see below).

The SWAT-organised protest had been planned for Tuesday March 8 but there had been concerns about the number of people who had committed to the event.

Save Withybush Action Team Chairman Chris Overton, said:

"We have decided to defer the protest to Saturday April 16th in order for more young people and children to be able to attend and because we felt that 350 would be too little in number at this juncture. 

"Booking of seats for the new date will remain open until April 9th.

"We are hoping that with the base line numbers we have now that we can get close to 1000 on April 16th."

UPDATE, Wednesday 9.30am: Some campaigners are still planning to go ahead with their protest on March 8.

Christopher Doran‎ said: "Although SWAT are not backing up the protest at the Senedd on March 8 there is still an event happening.

"SWAT's support may have been withdrawn but there are a lot of Pembrokeshire people that do not agree with them and still have the intention of going."
