Martin Vickers

Conservative — Brigg and Immingham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 June 2025

Debate

UK Modern Industrial Strategy

Contribution

Belated though it is, the announcement about energy costs is obviously vital to the steel sector. The Secretary of State is well aware of the situation in Scunthorpe. Will he give an assurance that, for the foreseeable future, production of virgin steel will continue in Scunthorpe? Will he work with North Lincolnshire council, which has plans for redeveloping the redundant parts of the site, particularly in respect of an AI growth zone?
