The Department for Education has a ring-fenced apprenticeship budget which is set regardless of how much levy receipts are each year. This budget was £2.01 billion for the 2017-18 financial year and £2.23 billion for 2018-19.<\/p>
<\/p>
Spending on the apprenticeship programme is demand led, and employers can choose which apprenticeships they offer and how many. We do not anticipate that all employers who pay the levy will need or want to use all the funds available to them.<\/p>
<\/p>
Unspent funds are used to cover the ongoing training costs of apprentices that are already in training. They are also used to support levy-paying employers who spend more than the funds available in their accounts and to fund training for non-levy payers.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/1523", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Anne Milton"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Guildford"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Anne Milton"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-06-20", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "groupedQuestionUIN" : {"_value" : "152761"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-06-20T16:09:59.927Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "60"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Education"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-06-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Apprentices: Taxation"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether he has made an estimate of the underspend on the apprenticeship levy by April (a) 2019, (b) 2020 and (c) 2021; and if he will make a statement.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4122", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Alex Cunningham"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Stockton North"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Alex Cunningham"} ], "uin" : "153265"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/922354", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department for Education"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/922354/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "
The rollout of 30 hours\u2019 free childcare for working parents of three and four year olds has been a success, and 294,000 children benefited in the spring term, saving parents money and helping them to bring balance between work and family life.<\/p>
<\/p>
We continue to monitor both the implementation of 30 hours and also delivery costs. We have recently commissioned new research to provide us with further robust and detailed data of the costs of delivering childcare for under five-year-olds using a representative sample of early years providers.<\/p>
<\/p>
The department has awarded grants to the National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) and the Professional Association of Childcare and Early Years (PACEY) to develop new business sustainability resources for childcare providers, which are available online at: https://www.earlyyearsbusinesszone.org.uk/<\/a> and https://www.pacey.org.uk/business/<\/a>.<\/p> A further package of support materials are also available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/early-years-business-sustainability<\/a>.<\/p>"}
