Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, if he will publish the externally audited copies of the last three years' accounts supplied by alternative learning providers who sought specific course designation under his Department's financial sustainability, management and governance checks.

The audited accounts of alternative providers submitted to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) as part of the specific designation application process are commercially confidential information. They are only shared with parties involved in the assessment of that application. BIS will not be publishing this information.
