Can Swansea Council really apply for Designation of Swansea Within the World Health Organisation (WHO) European Healthy Cities?

Why does Swansea Council believe they can apply for Designation of Swansea Within the World Health Organisation (WHO) European Healthy Cities Network Phase VII. when their Pension Fund invest £21,363,000 in British American Tobacco and £18,637,000 in Rio Tinto, one of the worlds most environmentally destructive company’s.
