question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much apprenticeship levy was paid by levy employers in (a) May 2017 and expired in May 2019, (b) June 2017 and expired in June 2019, (c) July 2017 and expired in July 2019 and (d) August 2017 and expired in August 2019 because the funds had not been used.
tabling member constituency	Stretford and Urmston
tabling member printed	Kate Green
uin	290935
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/10/2019 answer text <p>The apprenticeship levy is collected by Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC). The amount of apprenticeship levy paid by employers each month is published by HMRC at the following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-receipts-for-the-uk" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-receipts-for-the-uk</a>.</p><p>Employers in England are able to access their levy funds through their apprenticeship service account. The amount of funds expiring in employers’ apprenticeship service accounts in May 2019 was £11 million; in June 2019 it was £26 million; in July 2019 it was £44 million; and in August 2019 it was £52 million.</p><p>Employers’ levy funds are distinct from the Department for Education’s ring-fenced annual apprenticeship budget. The Department for Education’s budget is set on an annual basis to cover the costs of all apprenticeships: new apprenticeships in both levy-paying employers, and those that do not pay the levy, and existing apprenticeships for those who started in previous years. This budget is distinct from the funds in employers’ levy funds in their apprenticeship service accounts and is not affected by the value of levy funds expiring from employers’ accounts each month.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Chippenham answering member printed Michelle Donelan question first answered 04/10/2019 11:52:11 answering member 4530 label Biography information for Michelle Donelan
