Steven Baker
The Minister of State, Northern Ireland Office
The Northern Ireland Office (NIO) has contributed £83,000 in apprenticeship Levy funds between September 2021 and August 2023.
During the same period, the department has had no spend from the apprenticeship Levy fund. All NIO apprenticeships during this period were covered through the Civil Service-wide apprenticeship schemes, therefore the NIO specifically has not spent any levy funds.
