342. The information given in the body of this paper has been compiled with the help of <strong>CIAB</strong><br />

Associates and using some published sources. It describes <strong>developments</strong> over the last<br />

year in international coal markets and in environmental/energy policy in various countries<br />

from the perspective of individuals active in the coal, electricity and transport industries.<br />

343. During the last year, the focus of <strong>CIAB</strong> work has been on supporting the <strong>IEA</strong> Secretariat<br />

in delivering responses to the G8 Gleneagles Summit action plan and the particular<br />

challenges for coal, bringing the expertise of <strong>CIAB</strong> Members and their Associates to the<br />

issues through meetings and workshops. Section 1 of this paper summarises the high<br />

level messages derived from this work, while other sections highlight relevant<br />

<strong>developments</strong> in international coal markets, policy and investment to sustain the<br />

necessary role for coal in world energy supply and use.<br />
