asked the Prime Minister when he expects to receive a Report from the committee which is examining the position of the steel industry in this country; whether this Report will be published; and whether he will also publish the evidence upon which the Report is based?

The evidence taken by the committee will not be published, as it has been submitted on the express understanding that it would be treated as confidential.
