UK Steel Industry

Debate between Jim Shannon and Jessica Morden

Monday 14th September 2020 Commons Chamber

[Jessica Morden]

That is important for so many sectors and jobs, including the steel industry in our city.

[Jim Shannon (Strangford) (DUP)]

I congratulate the hon. Lady on bringing the debate to the Chamber. This will be a short intervention. Is she aware that Northern Ireland has a strong steel industry based on many individual contractors and that consideration must also be given to supporting the subsidiary jobs and industry throughout the United Kingdom? It is not just Wales; it is Northern Ireland, Scotland and England.
