HC Deb 20 May 1992 vol 208 c177W
38. Dr. Bray

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what is the Government's policy towards investment in new steel-making capacity in Scotland.

Mr. Allan Stewart

The Government would welcome any proposals which might lead to the continuation of steel production in Scotland, and we would urge British Steel to give very careful consideration to any bid that may be made for the re-use of any of its Scottish production facilities.
