Hon CHRIS HIPKINS: The Apprenticeship Boost is part of our COVID-19 support initiatives that helps employers to keep early-stage apprentices employed and training towards their qualification. Since it started in August of 2020, nearly 17,000 employers have been supported to retain over 42,000 first- and second-year apprentices and to take on new apprentices. We now have an unprecedented number of apprentices. In the first two months of this year, we've funded over 56,000 apprentices—that's compared to 48,000 in the same period last year, 2021, and just 37,000 in 2020. So it's an increase of 18 percent over last year and 55 percent over 2020. As a Government, we've been focused on rebuilding our trades and vocational education and training systems, and that work is really delivering results.
