HC Deb 28 November 1962 vol 668 c76W
Sir J. Maitland

asked the Minister of Power if he will give an estimate, by price, volume or in any other convenient form, of the amount of steel from foreign sources now being used in British industry by reason of the lower cost of foreign steel.

Mr. Wood

In the third quarter of this year, 228,000 tons of steel were imported. Roughly 80,000 tons may have been imported because they were cheaper.
