Proceeding contribution from Hywel Francis (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 7 July 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Steel Industry.


Steel Industry

I congratulate my right hon. Friend on securing this debate, and on his outstanding and sterling work in defending the steel industry, particularly in his constituency of Rotherham. He makes an important point about Government intervention, but does he agree that the Welsh Assembly Government and their ProAct scheme, which resulted from discussions, particularly with the steel union community of which he and I are members, has made a significant difference? Does he agree that it should be rolled out in England as well?
