We are continuing discussions with the devolved administrations about a fair allocation of funding from the proceeds of the Apprenticeship Levy.

Education and skills policy, including apprenticeships, is a devolved matter.

It is for the devolved administrations of Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland to determine how they manage and fund apprenticeships.
