Assuming the step is of concrete construction, tile with external grade porcelain, cement based tile adhesive, ( would probable go with a rapid set flex , personality. ) given external Conditions and tempature fluctuations -epoxy grout. Only need to screed if the fall is currently inadequate.

Assuming you are in the north west highlands, Ullapool, perhaps? Given the severe weather your likely to experience.

I'd go for belt and braces , on this!.

in the pictures you will see i have taken off some of the concrete adhesive
would you recommend putting ardex ca screed on and what adhesive to use
thanks all

What tiles are to go on? For me that looks tillable as it is

 

[celticman1956]

porcelain tiles i have scraped of some adhesive but will do the rest tommorow

Assuming there is adequate fall, and all loose material has been removed from the surface. I personally would use SBR primer, a good quality adhesive such as Bal rapid-flex fibre plus, and epoxy grout. Good luck.
