<p>In the Autumn Statement last year, my right hon. Friend, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, announced that the government would work with employers and providers on
the use of the apprenticeship levy after 2020.</p><p>We have been looking at how organisations
have responded to the introduction of the levy and associated reforms as well as how
we can help develop future demand for, and provision of, apprenticeships. We have
also been exploring the impact of the levy across different sectors and regions and
for different types of apprentices as well as the contribution of apprenticeships
to the wider skills landscape.</p><p>Over the past few months, we have used a number
of channels, including a survey and regional roundtables across England, to work with
a range of different employers, providers and representative organisations. We will
continue to listen to the views of employers and providers in the run-up to the Spending
Review.</p>
