question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much money his Department estimates is dormant in apprenticeship levy accounts.
tabling member constituency	Wolverhampton North East
tabling member printed	Emma Reynolds
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
