The Government wants a smooth and orderly exit from the EU, with a deal that protects our union, gives us control of our borders, laws and money, and means that we have an independent trade policy.

On 28th November 2018 the Government laid before Parliament the following document intended to facilitate parliamentary scrutiny ahead of the Meaningful Vote on the final deal: “EU Exit: Long-term economic analysis”.

This has been published on GOV.UK. The Government has therefore delivered on its commitment to provide Parliament with a robust, objective assessment of how exiting the EU may affect the economy of the UK, sectors (including steel), nations and regions in the long run.

The Department has and will continue to undertake extensive stakeholder engagement to understand the implications of the impacts of different no deal scenarios on different sectors including the steel sector.
