Iron and Steel: China
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, whether he is taking steps to help reduce levels of imports of Chinese-produced steel.
Answered by Chris McDonald
We seek to protect our steel industry from the impacts of unfair trading practices and global overcapacity, using trade remedies such as anti‑dumping and anti‑subsidy measures alongside the steel safeguard.
We are prioritising the development of a robust, evidence-based and effective measure to ensure our domestic sector remains protected following the expiry of the safeguard at the end of June 2026.
