answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 10/07/2017 answer text <p>In December 2016, the Government issued updated guidance on how Departments should ensure they take full account of the value provided by UK steel producers when conducting their procurement activities. The Ministry of Defence (MOD) continues to follow this guidance, which has also now been extended to the wider public sector.</p><p>In the main, defence steel requirements are sourced by our prime contractors from a range of UK and international suppliers, reflecting the overarching need to ensure competitive cost, time and quality. The specialist nature of some of our steel requirements means that UK steel producers do not always have the capability to supply our programmes. There are no plans to introduce the compulsory disclosure of certification and steel origin in UK defence procurement. However, the MOD is committed to facilitating the right conditions and supply chain opportunities for a competitive and sustainable steel industry across UK defence.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 10/07/2017 14:16:47 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin

The BMA also produces guidance on the level of fees that should be charged for commonly provided services.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine grouped question UIN 2928 question first answered 10/07/2017 14:17:17 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
