§ Mr. Gryllsasked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether, following the NEDC meeting on 2nd February, he will publish in the Official Report details of the recommendations made by the sector working party on the constructional steelwork industry and say what action it has now been decided to take on these recommendations.
§ Mr. FreesonAs I told the hon. Member on 24th January, it is for the sector working parties themselves to decide what further information to publish about the progress of their work, including their recommendations. However, as my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Industry said in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Leeds, West (Mr. Dean) on 3rd February, copies of the main papers on industrial strategy taken at the meeting of the National Economic Development Council on 2nd February amended only to remove commercially confidential information, have been placed in the Library. These papers summarise the latest reports from the sector working parties, set out the Government's general response and make clear that the recommendations will be considered individually.
