正文(英文) | Final Steel Procurement Taskforce sets out recommendations to support continued competitiveness of UK steel sectorThe Steel Procurement Taskforce presented the findings of its final report to the Steel Council and ministers.
The Steel Procurement Taskforce presented the findings of its final report to the Steel Council and ministers, highlighting ways that the steel sector can become more competitive in the UK and globally. See the Steel Procurement Taskforce final report. The report was discussed at the meeting of the UK Steel Council, which brings together government and representatives from the UK’s 6 major steel companies, trade unions and the devolved administrations, to support the sector’s transition to a competitive, sustainable and low carbon future. The Taskforce’s recommendations, outlined in their final report, aim to help industry to compete for major public projects by developing new technology, improving data, and promoting greater transparency. For instance, it found that enhancing data collection, including on the origin of steel, as well as developing a digital products library, could help optimise steel procurement and help industry to best position itself for success. The Taskforce final report also recommends:
The government and the sector will consider the Taskforce’s recommendations over the coming months. Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng said:
Co-chaired by Lord Grimstone and UK Steel’s Gareth Stace, the Steel Procurement Taskforce and its recommendations form part of the UK government’s ongoing commitment to support the sustainability of the steel sector. As well as discussing the Taskforce’s recommendations, the Business Secretary also restated the importance of the steel industry to the government and acknowledged the challenges the sector currently faces, particularly regarding energy costs. The government has provided over £600 million in relief to the steel sector since 2013 to make electricity costs more competitive. The Council also further discussed the finalised UK Steel Sector’s Net Zero Steel Report, which is due to be published soon and outlines the needs for effective steel sector decarbonisation.
