Answered on
7 November 2022
The UK steel industry not only underpins a range of domestic industries; it forms the core of some local communities and economies. The Government remains committed to a UK steel industry and a decarbonised future, supporting local economic growth and our levelling-up agenda.
Global economic conditions continue to be challenging for the steel industry and the Government is working with the sector, the unions and devolved regions to support its transition to a competitive, sustainable, and low carbon future.
