British Steel
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what representations her Department has made to the Office for National Statistics on the economic classification assessment of British Steel.
Answered by Darren Jones
HM Treasury officials work with the independent Office for National Statistics (ONS) to discuss their forward workplan for economic statistics classifications and the priorities for HM Treasury within that workplan (as set out in the ONS’ website). These discussions have included the review of the classification of British Steel, which the ONS' forward work plan notes they expect to complete in Quarter 2 (April-June) of 2025.
