Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, which stakeholders he has met with the discuss trends in the level of production of steel in the UK.
My Rt. Hon Friend the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy has met with executives from Tata and British Steel on a number of occasions, most recently in December. I meet regularly with representatives from the steel sector to discuss industry matters and how to secure the best outcomes for the UK economy, including sectors with dependencies on steel such as manufacturing, rail and automotive.
