Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng is set to make a full security assessment into the takeover of Newport Wafer Fab by Chinese-owned company Nexperia. The sale was blocked by the UK government over potential risks to national security. Prime Minister Boris Johnson pledged a security investigation into the sale, but a report in April from frustrated MPs showed it had yet to begin.
