Democratic Unionist Party — Strangford

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 April 2025

Debate

UK Industrial Strategy

Contribution

Can the Secretary of State further outline what representations he has made to Cabinet colleagues to ensure that the UK industrial strategy pays more than lip service to the position of Northern Ireland’s manufacturing industry, as seen in aerospace, shipbuilding and defence, which has a global reputation for being top-class? How will he advocate for our own Government to invest in those sectors even further and even better?
