What happened

Well supportedReported by 11 independent outlets

Labour's flagship apprenticeship scheme is facing scrutiny regarding its ability to meet youth employment targets. The scheme enrolled only 160 young people in its first eight months, falling short of the ambition of 30,000 foundation apprenticeship starts this parliament. Separately, new driving laws were introduced under Prime Minister Andy Burnham in August, including compulsory eyesight retests for elderly drivers, reduced drink-drive limits, and enhanced MOT compliance enforcement.
