Unions have claimed Tata Steel was planning to close the bulk of its operation at the UK’s biggest steelworks.
Tata’s announcement about the future of its Port Talbot plant was anticipated on Wednesday, but it is now not clear when its statement will be made.
Unions have responded ferociously to the proposals after they were briefed by Tata officials.

GMB, along with Community and Unite, promised to oppose the plans with every means at their disposal.
The UK government previously announced £500m to keep open the Port Talbot site, which employs 4,000 people. Tata Steel employs 8,000 people across the UK.
However, the money will see new electric arc furnaces replace existing blast furnaces, reducing the number of workers needed.
The company, which asked the government to provide further funds, is also investing £700m in the site.
