Department for International Trade written question – answered at on 18 July 2017.
To ask the Secretary of State for International Trade, what plans he has to promote the UK steel industry in future trade deal negotiations.
The UK is a leading proponent for free trade and is committed to supporting the UK steel industry to secure a sustainable future.
The Government has commissioned independent research into future market opportunities for UK steel and is actively encouraging the sector to identify the capabilities it will need to act on the findings. We are also preparing a UK trade remedies framework for when we leave the EU that will provide a safety net for our businesses against unfair trading practices, including in the steel sector.
