uin	220896
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/02/2019 answer text <p>Employers who pay the apprenticeship levy are able to create an apprenticeship service account to access levy funds, which will be held for 2 years after entering their account. We apply a 24-month expiry period on funds after they enter an account to encourage employers to plan and spend funds in good time. Any unspent funds from apprenticeship service accounts after the 24-month expiry period will be used to pay for apprenticeship training for non-levy paying employers. We do not therefore consider funds held in apprenticeships service accounts to be ‘dormant’.</p><p> </p><p>Spending on the apprenticeship programme is demand-led. Employers choose which apprenticeships they offer and at what level, how many apprenticeships to offer and when to offer them in order to meet their current and future skills needs. We do not anticipate that all employers who pay the levy will need or want to use all the funds in their accounts. However, any unspent funds are used to support existing apprenticeship learners and levy-paying employers who spend more than the funds available in their accounts and to fund training with employers that do not pay the levy.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 18/02/2019 17:16:22 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/03/2018 answer text <p>The apprenticeship levy did not come into effect until April 2017 and so there were no levy-supported apprenticeship starts before that date.</p><p> </p><p>The table attached sets out the overall number of apprenticeship starts where the learner’s home postcode is in the Wolverhampton local authority (LA) area, and provides the number of these that were levy-supported since April 2017. Please note that 2016/17 figures for all apprenticeship starts are full year figures and the 2016/17 levy-supported starts represent just 2016/17 quarter 4; this means that these are not comparable as they represent different timeframes.</p><p>The apprenticeship levy is collected centrally by HM Treasury and future availability and location of apprenticeships is dependent on where employers choose to recruit or offer apprenticeship opportunities. We do not therefore hold data on future delivery in the Wolverhampton LA area.</p> answering member constituency Guildford answering member printed Anne Milton question first answered 12/03/2018 14:07:59 answering member 1523 label Biography information for Anne Milton attachment 1 file name 131190 attachment.docx title Apprenticeship starts of learners
