This Government is supporting Tata Steel with £500 million towards building an electric arc furnace, securing the future of steelmaking at Port Talbot. This will protect 5,000 steel jobs and thousands more in the supply chain. The Tata Steel/Port Talbot Transition Board has been set up to support those affected by Tata Steel\u2019s decarbonisation transition, backed by a £100 million fund. Of that funding, £80 million is provided by the UK Government and £20 million will be provided by Tata.<\/p>
To address the potential impact on the supply chain, I have formed a dedicated Supply Chain Sub-Group within the structure of the Transition Board. This group consists of representatives from UK Government, Welsh Government, local government, and Tata Steel UK. This group is actively mapping affected supply chains and developing targeted interventions to specifically support impacted businesses.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1545", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for David T C Davies"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Monmouth"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "David T C Davies"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2024-05-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2024-05-14T09:40:48.28Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "28"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Wales"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Wales"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2024-05-08", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Tata Steel: Port Talbot"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, whether the Tata Steel / Port Talbot Transition Board has made a recent assessment of the potential impact of blast furnace closures on jobs in the supply chain.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4425", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jo Stevens"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Cardiff Central"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Jo Stevens"} ], "uin" : "25247"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1716404", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Wales Office"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/1716404/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Last year the Government launched the Anti-social Behaviour Action Plan https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/anti-social-behaviour-action-plan <\/a>ensuring the police, local authorities and other relevant agencies have the tools they need to tackle anti-social behaviour.<\/p> The plan is backed by £160m of funding. This includes funding an increased police and other uniformed presence to clamp down on anti-social behaviour, targeting hotspots. In 2023/24 this covered ten police force areas, including South Wales. That initiative is being rolled out across England and Wales with total funding of £66m will be allocated to support a hotspot approach.<\/p> We are also strengthening police and local authority powers to tackle anti-social behaviour through a number of measures in the Criminal Justice Bill.<\/p>"}

In addition, we have invested c.£3.5m (including c.£535k in 2023/24) in \u2018hotspot policing\u2019 to boost the policing response to serious violence in South Wales and provide high-visibility police patrols and problem-solving tactics in the streets and neighbourhoods most affected.<\/p> The VPU is tasked with investing in evidence-based approaches designed to steer vulnerable young people away from involvement in violence. As part of this approach, the VPU is funding local interventions in Cardiff including A&E Navigators, delivering advice, support and guidance to patients of any age who have experienced violence with injury, with the aim of engaging with those injured whilst they are in hospital to help break the cycle of violence at the point of crisis. Alongside this, the policing hot spot response programme is targeting key locations in Cardiff and Swansea with a dedicated proactive team conducting additional visible patrols and undertaking activity to target individuals within hotspots as well as providing additional support to teams working to police the night-time economy.<\/p> Additionally, just under £1m has been awarded in 2023/24 to support delivery of the Serious Violence Duty across Wales.<\/p> The government is also taking forward a programme to strengthen the controls and legislation on knives. A Statutory Instrument was laid in Parliament on 25 January 2024 to ban zombie style knives and machetes. Subject to the relevant legislation being approved by Parliament, a surrender and compensation scheme will be launched in August to remove zombie style knives and machetes from circulation and ownership, and once the scheme ends on 23 September, the manufacture, supply, sale and possession of zombie-style knives and machetes will be outlawed from 24 September 2024.<\/p> Additionally, through the Criminal Justice Bill , which is currently progressing through Parliament, we are providing more powers for police to seize knives held in private that they believe will be used for unlawful violence, increasing the maximum penalty for the offences of selling prohibited weapons and selling knives to under 18s, and creating a new offence of possessing an article with blade or point or an offensive weapon with intent to commit unlawful violence.<\/p>"}
