Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Saturday, 12 April 2025. It occurred during Debate on bill on Steel Industry (Special Measures) Bill.


Steel Industry (Special Measures) Bill

The Government give themselves powers in the Bill to compensate steel undertakings, yet the Minister has told us nothing about the scale of that or the estimate of it. The Secretary of State tells the House that he has no trust or abiding faith in the company, but he is giving himself powers to give whatever sums he deems appropriate to the company. Do we not need more answers before we pass this legislation?
