Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Answer by Lord Markham on 16 February (HL2398), whether they have increased the maximum funding for medical degree apprentices from £50,000 to £150,000 over the term of the course.

The funding of £150,000 to be provided by NHS England per medical degree apprentice is an increase of the funding of £50,000 for medical degree apprentices announced by Health Education England in January 2023.
