I understand that the population of redundant apprentices recorded on the SOLAS Apprenticeship Client Services System at the end of October 2013 is 1,736. The breakdown across the different phases is attached for the Deputy's attention. The number of redundant apprentices currently on the Redundant Apprentice Placement Scheme at the end of October is 185. It is expected that these will have completed their placement at the end of the year.
