A PUBLIC inquiry into the violent confrontation at Orgreave during the 1984 miners' strike will be established this year, the Government has announced.

Inquiry into violence during miners' strike at Orgreave

The inquiry, expected to launch in the autumn, will investigate the events surrounding clashes at the Orgreave Coking Plant in South Yorkshire on June 18 1984, which caused 120 injuries.

In total, 95 picketers were arrested and initially charged with riot and violent disorder, but all charges were later dropped after evidence was discredited.

The inquiry will be statutory with powers to compel people to provide information where necessary, the Home Office said.
