Current trends in the steel industry and developments in the 1980s - a) The economic background; short and medium term outlook in the OECD area and in the world generally - b) The probably growth of steel demand and trade through the decade 1980-1990 - c) Changes in capacity and the supply potential - d) The future supply / demand balance and its implications, including developments in international trade in steel.
The policy responses to the problems of the world steel industry - a) Policies for adjustment, modernisation and adaptation of the steel industry in the light of expected world developments - b) The problems of the labour force and re-adaptation of re-employment policies.
Summary: "During these two days of discussions, varied viewpoints will be expressed on the difficult and complex problems of the steel sector [in the 1980s]. It is not, therefore, envisaged that this symposium would arrive at any specific recommendations as to the course of actions to be followed. What I do hope is that each of you, in tackling your own problems, will do so with a better understanding of the viewpoints of others and that as a result, a greater degree of consensus might be reached in the search for solutions to the problems of the industry." - From the opening address by the OECD Secretary-General.
