Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

When I spoke out of order, I wanted to say that I am not happy with what the Minister said on this. I very much hope that the Government can come up with some constructive suggestion about how it can be made easier for an employer to receive the money in an automatic fashion. Although there are national employers who receive money for apprenticeships, for a local employer that is not the standard system; the money is not pitched directly to them. There is no standard method by which an employer can simply take on an apprentice and go and ask for the money. That is what we need. I hope that the Minister can come back with some suggestion along those lines on Report. Amendment 202 not moved. Clause 89, as amended, agreed.
