Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, what funding from the public purse was allocated to York College in each of the last 10 years.

I refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave on 23 March 2015 to Question UIN 228227 regarding further education funding.

The Department provides funding for adult further education and higher education. Adult skills funding allocations to further education providers are published on the Skills Funding Agency website:

For higher education, Table 1 shows the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) funding to York College between financial years 2005-06 and 2014-15.

Funding to further education providers for learners aged 16-18 is provided by the Department for Education.
