OK. So in a way it's a nothing story*, it is simply saying if we are out of the EU then the general rules will be applied across the board.... unless an exemption is negotiated obvs. It's then being spun into a story to appeal to the anti-immigration crowd.
Some sort of hypothecation from CT to training programmes or a fee for not having an apprenticeship scheme seems like a more sensible way to solve UK skills shortage.
*other than signalling / signposting the government's anti-immigration rhetoric, which is a bad thing.

Apparently the same fee was introduced in April for non EU workers
