Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds refuses to say if steel furnaces can keep running.

Emergency legislation was rushed through Parliament on Saturday to prevent owners Jingye shutting down.

Reynolds refused to say whether he could guarantee the furnaces would remain open.

The government previously said Jingye had been selling off raw materials before taking control.
