Steve Rotheram – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Steve Rotheram on 2016-02-02.

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, how many apprenticeship starts there were in each construction occupational area in 2015.

Nick Boles

Apprenticeships are categorised according to the Sector Subject Area of the apprenticeship, not the industry sector of the employer.

The Department does not produce forecasts for apprenticeship starts by Sector Subject Area. Apprenticeships are paid jobs and their availability is dependent on employers offering opportunities and hiring apprentices.
