Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, pursuant to the Answer of 11 February 2019 to Question 217094, what estimate he has made of the cost to the UK Steel industry of preparing for the UK leaving the EU without a deal.
Leaving the EU with a deal remains the Government’s top priority. The Government is undertaking extensive engagement with the UK steel sector on EU Exit. Through these conversations, individual companies have informed us of actions they are taking to prepare for all eventualities but such information is clearly commercially sensitive.
