<p>As the NHS is made up of a large number of diverse employers, it is not possible
to identify apprenticeship levy contributions or expired funds for the NHS as a whole.
Moreover, due to taxpayer confidentiality, we are unable to publish the amount that
individual employers have contributed through the apprenticeship levy.</p><p>We introduced
the levy to create long-term sustainable investment in high quality apprenticeship
training. Widening the scope of the apprenticeship levy would divert funding away
from apprenticeship training and reduce the opportunities for individuals and employers
to benefit from them. It is important that we maximise the effectiveness of government
investment in training and our reforms are making sure that apprenticeships are delivering
the high quality training that both individuals and employers need.</p><p> </p>
