answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/11/2015 answer text <p>The Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) conducted an equality analysis to support its compliance with the Public Sector Equality Duty prior to making the decision to withdraw the English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) Plus (Mandation) funding for 2015/16. The decision was taken in the knowledge that providers are independent organisations which manage their own budgets and have the flexibility to use their adult skills budget to continue to provide ESOL training for jobseekers and are therefore able to mitigate any adverse impact. It was also taken on the basis of our data which shows that the numbers of learners in England being referred to ESOL Plus (Mandation) provision was significantly lower than originally anticipated and the ESOL Plus (Mandation) budget was underspent in 2014/15.</p><p>BIS funds skills provision in England only.</p> answering member constituency Grantham and Stamford answering member printed Nick Boles question first answered 24/11/2015 15:47:20 answering member 3995 label Biography information for Nick Boles
