On 6 November, Ofgem set out their decision on the level of the cap, following a period of thorough consultation. This means the cap will come into force by the end of the year as we promised.<\/p>
<\/p>
The cap will protect 11 million households on standard variable tariffs. As a result, the average household on a standard variable tariff will save £76 and customers on the most expensive tariffs will save over £130. Overall the cap will save consumers in the UK an estimated £1 billion per year.<\/p>

My ministerial team and I have had numerous discussions with the steel sector \u2013 both as part of wider discussions and on this subject alone \u2013 since the measures were announced by the US. We and our colleagues across Government have regularly raised this issue directly with the US to make our objections clear. We have also been working closely with the EU to ensure that proportionate action is taken so that UK workers are safeguarded. We remain in regular contact with the EU and the US Administration to try to reach a positive outcome. Together with BEIS officials, I will continue to engage the UK steel and aluminium companies affected by these tariffs to provide advice and support.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4068", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Lord Harrington of Watford"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Watford"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Richard Harrington"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-11-15", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-11-15T14:52:02.997Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "201"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-11-12", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Iron and Steel: USA"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, What discussions he has had with steel companies on the effect of US steel tariffs on the UK steel sector.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4614", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Hugh Gaffney"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Coatbridge, Chryston and Bellshill"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Hugh Gaffney"} ], "uin" : "190544"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005842", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1005842/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

The National Environmental Research Council has conducted a scientific expedition in 2015 to look at biodiversity in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone. This work was part of the Managing Impacts of Deep Sea Resource Exploitation project. In 2012 Defra approved a plan of work by Lockheed Martin to look at the environmental aspects of manganese nodule commercial recovery from the deep seabed surface in the Clarion Clipperton Zone, Equatorial Pacific Ocean.<\/p>

The International Seabed Authority does not carry out environmental impact assessments but does decide on the quality of Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) provided by external contractors and does provide guidance on what an EIS should cover. The UK government is committed to ensuring that exploiting deep sea mineral resources is only undertaken to the highest environmental standard and nominated Dr Gordon Patterson of the National History Museum as one of the members of the Legal and Technical Commission (LTC) of the International Seabed Authority. The LTC reviews the plans of work adopted under exploration contracts and the performance of contractors against those agreed plans of work.
