Yes I was starting to wonder about this myself, it's still mentioned in version 4 of the funding rules so it looks like the declaration still has to be collected. I also cannot see anywhere where it clarifies if the de minimis State Aid amount still applies under the new subsidy control rules, any ideas would be appreciated?

State aid declaration needed after Brexit?
Created
The rules (P258, 2021 v3) still state that we need to get a copy of state aid declaration from employers funding an apprenticeship via transfer. The gov.uk guidance on state aid (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/state-aid#guidance) has been withdrawn post brexit though, and I can't figure out from what has replaced it whether the de minimis state aid limit of €200,000 still actually applies or not. From my layman reading, it looks like it doesn't... but then, the funding rules haven't been updated. Anyone got any clues?
Follow up question - assuming we do have to still get the declaration from them, there isn't a mandatory template for this, right? I can accept whatever the employer provides (or, if they struggle, draft a template for them myself?)?
Many thanks! :)
