Friend, the Minister of State for Universities and Science (David Willetts), on 11 July 2011, Official Report, column 195W.</p><p>Further education (FE) colleges and training organisations receive a post-19 funding allocation each academic year at the programme level (for example budgets for adult skills, adult safeguarded learning and/or offender learning and skills).</p><p>As funding is not allocated at the learning aim level, the amount of money spent on TUC learning aims is not reported centrally by the Skills Funding Agency.</p><p>From the 2011/12 academic year a single adult skills budget was introduced. This will provide FE colleges and training organisations with the flexibility to offer the range and balance of programmes, from basic skills to higher-level skills, in the mode of delivery that will best meet the needs of learners, employers and communities (classroom, workshop, online and in the workplace).</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matthew Hancock question first answered 02/07/2014 15:11:04 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
