PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(13 April 2026)

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment he has made of the impact of the Steel Strategy on the wider UK steel supply chain, including downstream manufacturers and fabricators.

Asked by:
Jess Brown-Fuller (Liberal Democrat)

This Government recognises the distinct value of downstream users, including in the manufacturing supply chain, alongside the importance of maintaining a resilient domestic steel sector.

We continue to engage extensively with industry and other stakeholders as we move into the delivery phase of the steel strategy, following its publication on the 19 March. This includes work to implement the new trade measure on 1 July. The publication of any further information will be considered as this progresses.
