I recently wrote to the Business and Trade Sub-Committee on Economic Security, Arms and Export Controls relating to a request for further information as part of the Committee’s inquiry on critical minerals. My response contains an annex outlining the UK’s agreements, dialogues and memoranda of understanding on critical minerals. The letter was published on 23 June 2026 and is available on the committee website.
