To ask His Majesty's Government whether they have engaged with the Northern Ireland Executive about critical minerals supply.
This question was answered on 7th May 2025
A secure supply of critical minerals is vital for the UK's economic growth and security, industrial strategy, and clean energy transition.

The Critical Minerals Strategy will be published in 2025, aligning with the multi-year Spending Review and the new Industrial Strategy.
