Proceeding contribution from Lord Lucas (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 July 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill.

Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

The noble Lord said that the funding follows the learner, but what he said previously amounted to saying that the funding does not follow the learner because he was talking about no recruitment and the difficulty of having to arrange the finance where an unexpected cross-border transaction such as the one envisaged in this clause takes place. It seems that the funding follows the commissioned learner, but that if learners choose to do something different, there is no mechanism for transferring that funding. That is what I understood the noble Lord to say.
