Tata Steel: Port Talbot
Asked by: David Chadwick (Liberal Democrat - Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe) Tuesday 6th May 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of bringing the assets Tata Steel in Port Talbot into public ownership. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) Tata Steel decided to close the blast furnaces at Port Talbot in January 2024, under the previous government.
However, we negotiated an improved deal with Tata regarding the transformation of Port Talbot after just 10 weeks in office, with better terms for workers, future investment opportunities for the area and the highest voluntary redundancy package Tata has ever offered for workers. Work is proceeding on the development of the Electric Arc Furnace which will enable steelmaking to continue at the site and form a key part of our future steel sector. |
Tata Steel: Port Talbot
Asked by: David Chadwick (Liberal Democrat - Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe) Tuesday 6th May 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what assessment he has made of the potential impact of the closure of the blast furnaces at the Tata Steel site on the economy in Neath Port Talbot. Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) We are aware of the impact of this transition on the local economy and community, and we have taken steps to assist and support those affected. Under the leadership of the Secretary of State for Wales, the Port Talbot Tata Steel Transition Board moved from discussion to delivery from last July. Since then, more than £50 million has been announced to support steel communities, from the £80 million available from UK Government. The latest release of funding, to support mental health, was announced just last month. |
Iron and Steel: India
Asked by: David Chadwick (Liberal Democrat - Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe) Monday 12th May 2025 Question to the Department for Business and Trade: To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether steel imports from India will be covered by UK Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism exemptions under the UK-India Free Trade Agreement. Answered by Douglas Alexander - Minister of State (Cabinet Office) Steel is a top priority for this Government. The UK-India Free Trade Agreement (FTA) does not include any text related to the implementation of the UK’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism. The FTA includes liberalised Most Favoured Nation tariffs on steel, but the UK’s trade remedies, including a global safeguard measure on certain steel products, continue to apply. Also, as part of our agreement, we included a ‘bilateral safeguard mechanism’ which allows us to temporarily increase tariffs or suspend tariff concessions if an industry is suffering or is at threat of serious injury as a result of reduced duties. |
