The UK steel sector plays an important role in our economy, providing jobs, high quality steel products and helping to deliver our country’s infrastructure. The public sector is an important buyer of steel, procuring it to build our railways, roads, buildings, defence equipment, schools and hospitals.
This PPN replaces PPN 11/16. The updated guidance reflects changes to the project appraisal and commercial policy landscape since 2016 and clarifies the scope of reporting requirements on steel origin data.
