Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 4 May 2022
354. Deputy Rose Conway-Walsh asked the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science the percentage and total number of both craft and consortia-led apprentices that will access off-the-job training in 2022 and the anticipated figures for 2023; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22272/22]
View answerMy Department has been advised by SOLAS that the request from the Deputy with regard to the percentage and total number of both craft and consortia-led apprentices that will access off-the-job training in 2022 and the anticipated figures for 2023, is complex and has two parts for both pre and post 2016. SOLAS will require some more time to consider fully the data request. Due to the fact that there are two distinct models of delivery the data may not be available in one location. When SOLAS have this information collated, we will forward it on the Deputy as soon as possible.
