Apprenticeship Levy: Northern Ireland

Asked by Robin SwannUlster Unionist PartyTreasuryTabled Answered 14 October 2025UIN 77395

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, how much revenue the Exchequer has collected from the Apprenticeship Levy (a) in total and (b) from companies registered in Northern Ireland in each of the last three years.

Answered by James Murray

Receipts data for the Apprenticeship Levy is published by HM Revenue and Customs in their Tax and NIC Receipts publication which can be found online at:

https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-receipts-for-the-uk

Receipts data based on company registered addresses do not reflect where liabilities are accrued or where employees are based. For example, the data on receipts from companies with registered addresses in Northern Ireland will not include businesses registered in Wales, Scotland, or England, who have a presence and pay employees in Northern Ireland.
