Workers' unions unite and communities welcome British Steel Development

Unite, the largest union in the UK and Ireland, has welcomed the announcement that Turkish Armed Forces Fund Oyak has entered into negotiations with Ernst and Young's administrators to buy British Steel, which was forcibly liquidated in May. Harish Patel, National Steel Officer for Unite, said: “The overwhelming feeling of 5,000 workers at British Steel is a relief. Since May, workers have been suspended from the future of the company, and their jobs have been in dire straits. The announcement that Oyak has entered into exclusive negotiations to buy British Steel is not the end of the process, but is a huge step forward and provides some degree of confidence for British Steel employees and customers. To ensure the long term future of British Steel and the UK steel industry, the government still needs to keep an eye on developments and help address the challenges of high energy costs and commercial rates. The government should also put in place a proper manufacturing strategy that addresses procurement issues to ensure that British steel is used in government contracts. It is also important that the government acts to prevent a catastrophic Brexit that does not result in cheap steel being dumped on the UK market. ”

Roy Rickhass, Secretary General of the Community, said: “This is an important milestone that will be extremely encouraging for the workforce and all those associated with British Steel. But we must understand that this is not a deal yet and there is a lot of hard work ahead of us. We are now looking forward to working with Ataer to understand and scrutinize their business plans. As we said from the outset, we believe the business must be cohesive and the future of steel production at Scunthorpe is secure. We want to make sure that Ataer has a long-term strategy to invest in assets and grow its business in
