My officials have not discussed the Confederation of British Industry\u2019s (CBI) education and skills annual report with the CBI. We are aware of the need to deliver a national policy that is effective and delivers the cultural change in adult skills that is needed. That is why the National Retraining Scheme is being driven by a key partnership between the CBI, Trade Union Congress and government who are working together to develop a national policy that will genuinely make a difference.<\/p>

We have also recently published findings from our Employer Skills Survey, which interviewed over 87,000 employers about their skills needs and challenges: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/employer-skills-survey-2017-uk-report<\/a>.

Since May 2018, levy-paying employers have been able to transfer up to 10% of their unused apprenticeship service funds to non-levy paying employer(s) to pay for the training and assessment cost of the apprenticeships agreed with the receiving employer. From May 2018, when the employers became able to make levy transfers, to July 2018 [2017-18 Academic Year] less than 1% of levy funds in employer apprenticeship service accounts were used to fund apprenticeships in this way for non-levy paying employers.<\/p>

<\/p>

Other than through a levy transfer from a levy paying employer, apprenticeship levy funds cannot be accessed by non-levy paying employers. More information on how transfers work can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/transferring-apprenticeship-service-funds<\/a>.<\/p>

The government considers refugees, who entered the UK via the Syrian Vulnerable Persons Resettlement Scheme or the Vulnerable Children\u2019s Resettlement Scheme, eligible for funding on the same basis for 16-19 study programmes as all other eligible students.<\/p>

General further education (FE) colleges have separate capital arrangements. Skills capital for FE colleges is delivered through the Local Growth Fund, devolved to Local Enterprise Partnerships to spend on their capital priorities. This year, the government has made available £130 million in skills capital funding through this route.<\/p>

<\/p>

In October 2018, my right hon. Friend, the Secretary of State announced an additional £38 million in capital funding to help ensure that the group of 2020 T level providers, including FE colleges, have the equipment and facilities necessary to deliver T levels from September 2020.<\/p>

The majority of prospective Professional and Career Development Loan (PCDL) borrowers in England now have access to statutory loans such as Advanced Learner Loans, postgraduate master\u2019s loans and doctoral loans. Demand for PCDLs has fallen significantly as a result.<\/p>

Statutory loans offer better repayment terms and greater protections than PCDLs and access to those is not dependent on an assessment of the applicant\u2019s credit history.<\/p>

There are therefore no plans to replace PCDLs.<\/p>
