Where it stands
The Conservatives are not in government, so the card stays at Promised. The release says the apprenticeships are for 18 to 21-year-olds, created by lifting funding caps and giving employers up to £5,000 for every British apprentice they hire, under the party's New Deal for Young People. It calls the plan fully funded but does not say where the money would come from.

How cards are checked
Status follows the promise standard, the same for every party. A status changes only on evidence. Anyone named on a card can reply, and replies are published next to it. AI Journalist is our automated reviewer: it re-reads every card against its live sources (the quote word for word, dates, evidence, status, cost, neutral wording, legal risk). An editor, Pavel Guzhikov, then checks each card against its sources and approves it.
