Apprentices

Question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, how many apprentices employed by (a) his Department and (b) its executive agencies and associated bodies are aged (i) 16 to 18, (ii) 19 to 24 and (iii) 25 years or older; and how many of those apprentices employed in each form of body and of each age group were previously employed by the Government.

Answer

My department currently employs 7 apprentices aged 16-18; 28 aged 19-24; and 5 or fewer aged over 25.

Cabinet Office executive agencies and specialist bodies employs five or fewer apprenticeships aged 16-18; five or fewer 19-24; and five or fewer aged over 25.

Cabinet Office does not hold information centrally relating to apprentices’ previous employment.

As was the case under previous administrations, exact figures are not provided when five or fewer individuals are involved.
