Sir Edward Leigh

The Government has taken measures to help British Steel keep going.

I believe we need to keep the blast furnaces operating and maintain our ability to make virgin steel.

Electric arc technology is simply not good enough.

My constituents have sweated blood to keep the blast furnaces going.

I asked the Government to make a clear commitment today to maintaining our permanent ability to make virgin steel.

You can see my question and the ministerial reply here.
