	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2017 answer text <p>The Ministry of Defence (MOD) is fully supportive of wider Government efforts to support the UK steel industry. Following the implementation of the Government's updated policy guidance on steel procurement, the MOD has remained engaged with its prime defence contractors to ensure their support in adhering to the practices and guidelines set out in the policy. This includes forecasting our future steel requirements through the Government's Steel Pipeline, which is published on gov.uk, and requiring our prime contractors to carry out early market engagement in relation to the supply of steel.</p><p>The MOD continues to discuss defence steel procurement with our prime contractors and UK Steel. I recently attended a roundtable meeting with UK Steel, during which we discussed how to maximise opportunities for the UK Steel industry. Following this meeting I have personally ensured that we take steps to engage with the UK Steel industry in the pre-procurement phase of the Type 31e programme.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 16/10/2017 16:11:41 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
