system and enables employers of all sizes to make a long-term, sustainable and high-quality
investment in training. Monthly receipts data for the apprenticeship levy is published
by HM Revenue and Customs in their tax and national insurance contributions receipts
publication, which can be found at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-receipts-for-the-uk"
