Sir Gary Streeter (in the Chair)
May I make an observation? It is helpful if the Minister can respond to one intervention before people bounce up and down for the next one. Let us take it calmly.
Sarah Jones
It has been a while since I bounced up and down, Chair; I am too old for that. Is the Minister exploring incentives to keep scrap steel in this country? Because at the moment we export it all. Is she looking at VAT relief, tariffs or restrictions to help that process?

Let us remind ourselves that we are talking about the north-east.
Sarah Jones
I do not think anyone thinks 2010 was year dot, but the Government have been in power for 12 years, and we are judging that record today.
