I am advised by Revenue that there are no data available within its systems on the number of employers who employ an apprentice, the salary levels of the apprentices in their employ, the employer’s ability to absorb the credit proposed, or the behavioural changes which may occur if the credit was introduced.
It is not possible, therefore, to estimate the cost to the exchequer of providing a credit as outlined by the Deputy.
