Reduce employer and employee NI contributions for apprenticeships

Closed 55 signatures

What the petition asks

Reduce National Insurance contributions for any employers and employees required to make such contributions, for approved apprenticeships.
I believe a reduced NI contribution could help encourage potential employers to take on young people for training in badly needed skills. I think this could help resolve the national skills shortage and get young people into work.
