Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 June 2026

Debate

Steel Import Restrictions

Contribution

My Lords, as the Minister will no doubt realise, tariffs are double-edged. The businesses that use steel that is not being manufactured in this country are in danger of having to pay higher prices for that steel, unless the Government are subtler than seems to be the case to date. Can the Minister undertake forthwith to make sure that the steel catalogue is thoroughly reviewed and that no steel that cannot be made in the United Kingdom would come under any tariff at all?
