<p>Our support to the UK steel sector is clear, we have introduced effective safeguards
against non-market economies, helped public projects procure more UK made steel and
we are launching the British Industry Supercharger to bring energy costs closer in
line with those charged across the world’s major economies.</p><p>This Government
has agreed a £500m grant as part of a larger £1.25bn commitment by Tata Steel to transform
and secure a sustainable future at their Port Talbot works. We have also offered a
generous support package to British Steel.</p><p>More widely, the UK has a highly
skilled workforce, a supportive tax and business environment which is more competitive
than our EU neighbours, an increasingly decarbonised energy grid for green steel,
and plentiful supplies of steel scrap.</p>
