Baseline | £2,675.20m |
Forecast | £1,899.48m |
Variance | -29.00% |
Variance text: | The budget variance exceeds 5%. The baseline was set in 2015 which was before the Levy transformation was implemented. This budget is very difficult to forecast as there is a lot of uncertainty around employer behaviour following the introduction of the new levy. Starts delivered since introduction of the Levy in May 2017 continue to be lower than expected. Employer behaviour is hard to predict and it is very difficult to accurately forecast spend during a period of such uncertainty. Our updated costs for 2020-21 reflects the reduction in the number of starts. The figures for 2020-21 are the draft year end position and are still subject to final review and audit. |

This has now been corrected. |
