Arms sales data by region is published annually on GOV.UK.<\/p>
<\/p>
More widely, export values declared for Standard Individual Export Licences for military exports granted to Yemen in 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 (up to 30 September 2018) are as follows:<\/p>
<\/p>
Year<\/strong><\/p><\/td> Value (£)<\/strong><\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2015<\/p><\/td> £27,222<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2016<\/p><\/td> £265,620<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2017<\/p><\/td> £21,150<\/p><\/td><\/tr> 2018<\/p><\/td> £0<\/p><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table> <\/p> It should be noted, that licences granted are not necessarily a measure of sales or exports shipped in a given period as they are valid for between two and five years. Licensing data only provides a partial indication of sales as exporters only declare export values for a subsection of licences (Standard Individual Export Licences). Some licences expire before they are used and, in these circumstances, exporters must submit a further application, which can result in an element of double counting.<\/p> <\/p> <\/p> All UK export licence applications are assessed rigorously against the Consolidated EU and National Arms Export Licensing criteria.<\/p> <\/p> It is also the case that there is a partial arms embargo on Yemen. The embargo applies only to designated individuals and entities.<\/p>"}

As an employer-led programme, employers choose the type and level of training that they need to meet their skills needs. There were 163,700 starts on apprenticeship standards in 2017/18, which is more than 6 times higher than the number of starts in 2016/17. This shows that employers are moving quickly to this new higher quality offer.<\/p> Our reforms are making apprenticeships longer and better, with more off-the job training and appropriate assessment at the end. These changes are making sure that today\u2019s apprenticeships reflect what businesses want and need.<\/p>"}
