Written Answers
Metals: Recycling
Asked by: Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative - Life peer)
Friday 28th November 2025

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to ensure parity of treatment between metal recyclers and steel producers in relation to energy pricing and the proposed carbon border adjustment mechanism.

Answered by Baroness Lloyd of Effra - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The Government has recently published a consultation on eligibility for the British Industrial Competitiveness Scheme which, from 2027, will lower electricity prices for businesses in manufacturing frontier industries and foundational industries in their supply chains. Support is also available through the British Industry Supercharger and the Energy Intensive Industries Compensation Scheme.

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) will ensure that highly traded, carbon-intensive imported goods face a comparable carbon price to UK-produced equivalents. Imported scrap products, including those from aluminium, iron and steel, will remain outside CBAM scope due to their low carbon leakage risk.

Metals: Recycling
Asked by: Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative - Life peer)
Friday 28th November 2025

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government what steps they are taking to maintain the domestic metal-recycling base to secure the feedstock required for a decarbonised steel industry, and to reduce reliance on imported virgin materials.

Answered by Baroness Lloyd of Effra - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The Government recognises the importance of a circular economy and the need for domestic supply of scrap to meet demand, whilst also ensuring the market remains fair and beneficial for all stakeholders. We are actively listening to the perspectives of all involved parties.

Employment Rights Bill
Asked by: Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative - Life peer)
Tuesday 9th December 2025

Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they are considering revising the implementation timetable of the Employment Rights Bill.

Answered by Baroness Lloyd of Effra - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

There will be several phases of delivery following Royal Assent of the Employment Rights Bill. For many measures, Government will consult on the detail of policy and implementation. As set out in the Implementation Roadmap, we will provide more detail on these policies and our timelines for implementation following consultation, with a clear commitment that we aim to work at pace to deliver these tangible benefits to millions of working people.
