Major search operation to find three missing following collapse at Didcot A power station
Three people are still missing following a collapse at Didcot A power station.
Families of missing Didcot workers still waiting for recovery operation
The families of three men missing after the Didcot Power Station collapse will have to wait at least a week more before a recovery operation begins .
The workers have not been seen since the collapse almost 3 weeks ago.
On Sunday, the families staged a protest outside the power station, demanding more be done to find their loved-ones.
RWE, the owner of the site, must produce a safety plan before emergency services start to recover the men, missing under thousands of tonnes of metal and rubble. The plan is being delayed because the half of the building still standing could be at risk of collapse.
