Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether his Department plans to expand the Energy Supercharger package to include a larger proportion of the steel industry and related sectors including scrap.

The Department for Business and Trade will conduct its review of the British Industry Supercharger this year, which will include a review of eligibility criteria. Any changes to eligibility criteria, or other parts of the policy, are subject to public consultation and ministerial approval. I encourage all stakeholders, including those in the steel and scrap sectors, to engage with this review when the opportunity arises and present all relevant evidence.
