Peter Kyle – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Peter Kyle on 2016-01-21.

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, if he will make it his policy to provide regular updates to Parliament on the work of the Apprenticeship Delivery Board.

Nick Boles

Updates on the activities and achievements of the Apprenticeship Delivery Board will be posted on Gov.uk.

More broadly, subject to Parliamentary approval, the Welfare Reform and Work Bill places a new duty on Government to report annually on progress towards meeting 3 million apprenticeships starts in England by 2020. This report will reconfirm Government’s commitment to that policy ambition, as well as ensuring transparency on progress.
