Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when he plans to publish the responses to the call for evidence on steel trade measures, which closed on 7 August 2025.

The Government is currently considering the responses from the Call for Evidence to shape future trade measures on steel following the expiry of the steel Safeguard in June 2026.

The future of the steel sector is of great importance to this Government as well as the UK's prosperity and security. This Call for Evidence reflects the UK Government's longstanding commitment to ensuring sufficient measures are in place to address the impact of global steel overcapacity and to strengthen the security of the UK's critical supply chains.

We will announce next steps in due course.
