What assessment has the Government made of the sectors that will be most affected by the reductions in funding for the apprenticeship budget?

Answered by Minister for Economy | Answered on 15/03/2024

The Strategic Integrated Impact Assessment (SIIA) outlines the impacts of budget decisions, which is available at WG SIIA Draft Budget 2024 to 2025. Alongside this, responses of individual Ministers to their respective policy committees with the associated consideration of impacts is available at WG Draft Budget 2024-25 web page.

The Strategic Integrated Impact Assessment was undertaken for the Draft Budget; £5.25m was reallocated to apprenticeships in the Final Budget.
