The Minister acknowledges the importance of ceramics to many communities, particularly in Stoke-on-Trent and manufacturing heartlands. He explains that the British industry supercharger was designed to support industries prone to carbon leakage due to high electricity costs faced by UK businesses. Some ceramics firms receive this support, comprising around 10% of the industry. The Minister highlights the uplift to the network charging compensation scheme, saving eligible ceramics businesses 90% on their electricity network charges. He outlines plans for a review of eligibility for the supercharger and engagement with the sector during this process. The Government are taking wider action through the British industrial competitiveness scheme to support over 10,000 manufacturing businesses, including some advanced and technical ceramics from 2027 onwards. The Minister expresses sadness at recent closures like Denby Pottery but reassures that officials are working closely with relevant agencies to provide necessary support for affected workers and communities. He emphasises the potential of ceramics to be forward-facing in a decarbonised economy, noting the £120 million ceramics industry support scheme aimed at backing capital investment, energy efficiency projects, and operational support for successful applicants. The Minister concludes by thanking Snell for securing this debate and recognising the resilience and innovation demonstrated by the ceramics sector despite challenging conditions.
