I commend my hon. Friend on securing this debate and on the way he is outlining the practical things that can be done. May I draw Members’ attention to the House of Commons Library assessment of the state aid interventions by other European countries, which are within the rules? We are allowed to do that. Germany’s bona fide support—it is not giving hand-outs—for its industry is twice the level of the UK’s. Does my hon. Friend agree that we are not doing what we can for the steel industry?
