Question to the Wales Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, what steps he is taking to support the steel industry in Wales.
This question was answered on 18th January 2023
We continue to work closely with the Steel industry to secure a sustainable and competitive future. Our support for Steel includes over £800m for energy costs, in addition to the Energy Bill Relief Scheme. I was disappointed to hear about Liberty Steel. I understand this will be a concerning time for those impacted. I have already spoken to Cabinet colleagues about this matter and we stand ready to support.
