The continuing efforts being made to secure the future of Scunthorpe steelworks were stressed during Brigg Town Council's latest meeting held last week in the Angel Suite.
Coun Rob Waltham gave an update to fellow town councillors in his role as the leader of North Lincolnshire Council.
Yesterday (Monday, July 29) he welcomed a visit to Scunthorpe steelworks made by a cabinet minister - for British Steel talks.
Coun Waltham met with the Government’s new Business Secretary, Andrea Leadsom, at the steelworks, as part of the British Steel Support Group, and discussed the future of the UK’s steel industry.
Coun Waltham said: “It is a clear sign of commitment from the Government to steelmaking in North Lincolnshire that the new minister has visited Scunthorpe’s plant just three days into her new job.
“In this worrying time for many local families, Andrea Leadsom has reaffirmed that the Government is working to securing a future for the steel industry in Scunthorpe.
“We have a proud history of making some of the highest quality steel in the world, right here in Scunthorpe, and we’re doing all we can to ensure that this continues – for the families that rely on their jobs at the works, for the town, and for the area.”
Andrea Leadsom was appointed the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy by the new Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, on July 24.
A spokesman for North Lincolnshire Council added: "The Official Receiver took over the day-to-day running of the British Steel site in Scunthorpe in May this year, continuing the usual operations of the plant – including paying employees – whilst a buyer for the business is sought."
Hundreds of current steelworkers live in Brigg and the surrounding area, which also has a huge number of steelworks pensioners.
