Non-Levy on DAS

the limit is still 10 and has not changed.

Thanks so much Martin, 

In addition is it 10 learners on 'reserved funds' or is in 10 total i.e. when they move from 'reserved' to 'active' does that mean you can make a reservation on another 10 people? (I doubt this is the case but I've been asked to confirm). 

Finally I can't find this in the funding rules, or ILR spec - where should I be looking for the update/guidance?

I was looking for that last week and couldn't find anything. It just says "'active' or 'used'". I assume if someone Completes, they drop out of that ten? Withdrawals won't automatically, so I guess if the employer stops the record they drop out of that ten?

Great point Ruth, I hadn't thought about withdrawals. 

Stopped records definitely do not drop off the list. Following on from that, I would be surprised if completers dropped off. 

Something really needs to be done about this, all new starts must go on the DAS from the 1st April, and we have employers who have used all ten (some from last contract year, as we encouraged early take up), and can't get incentives for learners who would otherwise qualify as they now have to go on procured contract. What will they do in just over a month?

Will the reservations limit be increased, form 1st April, or will they do away with it? Surely we should know by now.

Has anyone heard anything else. 

I have non levy companys asking about the 10 cap rule and I cannot find any clarity on this anywhere. 

If a learner withdraws can they enrol someone new?

When learners are active/used can new reserves be requested or only when the 10 learners have completed?

Employers want confirmation that they can only have 10 employees on apprenticeships at any one time.
