We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Telford Homes Plc will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Telford Homes Plc recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
We also pledge the following:

Support: Signposting through our Health and Well- being programme to support our Military personnel by providing emotional and mental support.

2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.

Colin Hughes appointed Chair of Ordnance Survey
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-14)

Colin Hughes has been appointed as the new Chair of Ordnance Survey by the UK Government, starting on 9 March 2025.

- The new Chair of Ordnance Survey has been named as Colin Hughes, starting from March 2025
- Colin has held a range of senior leadership roles, and is the current CEO of AQA
- Current Chair, Stephen Lake, will step down at the end of his final term
Colin will remain in his current position as CEO of AQA while taking on his new role as Ordnance Survey Chair.

Colin previously held senior leadership positions in the education, publishing and media sectors, including Managing Director of Collins Learning for eight years. Before this, he founded Learnthings Ltd (the Guardian’s digital learning business) in 2000 and was appointed Managing Director of Guardian Professional in 2006. Earlier, Colin worked as a journalist for the Press Association and The Times, before moving to the Independent, where he was Managing and Deputy Editor.

Colin has held chair positions with the Education Publishers Council from 2014 to 2018, and chaired Middlesex University for eight years and is currently Chair of Staffordshire University.

The current chair Stephen Lake will step down at the end of his final term, having served since 2021 and as non-executive director on the board since 2014.

Speaking on his appointment, new Chair of Ordnance Survey Colin Hughes said:

I’m hugely excited to be joining the Board of Ordnance Survey at this moment of great opportunity for one of the UK’s most dynamic organisations. OS has incomparable potential for innovating in digital and data to support growth and gain in our society and economy, and it will be a privilege to support Nick Bolton and his team in realising their plans to maximise that value.

Technology Minister, Baroness Jones of Whitchurch said:

My congratulations to Colin Hughes on his appointment as Chair of Ordnance Survey.

Drawing on Colin’s vast leadership experience, Ordnance Survey will continue to play an important role in re-imagining the way we use location data to improve public services, support businesses, and unlock economic growth as part of our Plan for Change.

Ordnance Survey Chief Executive Nick Bolton added:

I’m thrilled to welcome Colin as the new Chair of Ordnance Survey. This is an exciting time for us, and Colin’s experience in digital transformation, along with his vision and expertise, will be invaluable as we continue to achieve our strategic goals and deliver exceptional value to our customers and the country more broadly.

I would also like to extend my thanks to Stephen Lake, who is leaving the OS Board after 10 years. Stephen has contributed much through a period of significant change for the organisation and leaves us in a stronger position.

ECSH42575 - Charities and voluntary organisations
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-03)


The Charity Commission (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/charity-commission) is responsible for the registration of charities in England and Wales, ensuring that they understand and comply with charity law. The Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator (https://www.mygov.scot/organisations/scottish-charity-regulator-oscr) carries out a similar function for Scottish charities.

Charitable status is defined by the purpose and function of the particular organisation. These organisations can take a number of legal forms. Some may be companies limited by guarantee, a charitable incorporated organisation under the Charities Commission, or incorporated by Royal Charter or by Act of Parliament; some may take the form of trusts, others may be unincorporated associations.

Charities providing services which are supervised activity, only come within the scope of The Money Laundering, Terrorist Financing and Transfer of Funds (Information on the Payer) Regulations 2017 (MLR 2017) if they are providing that service by way of business (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/economic-crime-supervision-handbook/ecsh42525). If those services provided are not carried out “by way of business” they are not treated as being within scope of MLR 2017. The services provided by charities are often free of charge, paid for out of donations, bequests and grants etc.

IFM28008 - Real Estate Investment Trust : Distributions: The distribution requirement : CTA2010/S530
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-17)


A condition of remaining in the regime is that the company (principal company for a Group REIT) must distribute 100% of “UK REIT investment profits”, plus 90% of the income profits of the property rental business of each accounting period, by the CTSA filing date for that period (CTA2010/S530). That mandatory distribution is treated as a “property income distribution” (PID).

“UK REIT investment profits” are distributions of property rental business profits and gains paid by one UK REIT to another (CTA2010/S549A). The requirement to distribute 100% of these PIDs received prevents dilution of the distribution paid to and taxed on the investors.

If the company/principal company wants to distribute more to its shareholders, there are attribution rules to determine how much of any additional distribution is from profits of the property rental business (and therefore payable as a PID under deduction of basic rate tax) or is out of profits that arose from other, taxable activities (and therefore treated as normal distributions with no requirement to deduct tax on payment). The attribution rules are set out in IFM28010 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm28010) onwards.

The company/principal company should regularly review the distributions being paid to ensure it meets the 100% and 90% requirements for paying PID, as well as ensuring it does not pay out more in PIDs than the total of the UK REIT investment profits, exempt property rental business profits and exempt gains available.
VATREVCON35100 - How the construction reverse charge works: Schemes: Flat Rate Scheme
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-02)


Supplies that the reverse charge applies to are excluded from the Flat Rate Scheme (FRS (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/vat-flat-rate-scheme)) and must be accounted for under the reverse charge provisions. Businesses who make supplies that are subject to the construction reverse charge may remain on the Flat Rate Scheme but may wish to consider whether it remains in their interests to do so (given that under the scheme they cannot recover VAT incurred on purchases of materials and overheads). If a business does choose to remain on the Flat Rate Scheme then they must carry out the reverse charge VAT liability calculations separately from their Flat Rate Scheme calculation, and then combine the figures when completing their VAT return.
SAM121130 - Returns: individuals returns: taxpayer is deceased
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-25)


You may learn on receipt of the return that the taxpayer is deceased. The clerical procedures following the death of a taxpayer are largely unaffected by the introduction of SA. If the first notification of death is on the SA return completed by the personal representative, any requests for additional information and / or documents can only be made as a formal Section 9A enquiry.

When informed of the death of a taxpayer it is necessary to update the taxpayer record to indicate
- That the taxpayer has died
- The date of death
- The details of the Personal Representatives
Note: Whenever there is a change to the capacity details, any current registration or enrolment for the SA Online Service will be removed from the online computer system. Therefore the capacitor must be advised to register and enrol again for the SA Online Service, using the personal details of the customer they are acting for, to be able to file the customer’s tax return online. When this is done, the activation code will be sent from the Government Gateway to the home address of the capacitor on the record. For further information, see subject ‘Set up taxpayer record: set up capacities’ (SAM100210 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/self-assessment-manual/sam100210)).

Gosododd yr Adran Iechyd a Gofal Cymdeithasol strategaeth ymgysylltu gynhwysfawr ar waith i lywio datblygiad y Cynllun Iechyd 10 Mlynedd, sy’n troi’r miloedd o fewnwelediadau a gasglwyd yn gynllun gweithredu clir. Gall y gymdeithas sifil chwarae rhan hanfodol wrth ategu’r tair sifft sylfaenol: o’r ysbyty i’r gymuned, o analog i ddigidol ac o driniaeth i atal.

Mae’r Cynllun Iechyd 10 Mlynedd yn cynnwys nod penodol o sicrhau mai’r GIG yw’r partner gorau posibl a’r darparwr gofal iechyd cyhoeddus mwyaf cydweithredol yn y byd. Drwy arloesi o’r gwaelod i fyny ac ar lawr gwlad y byddwn ni’n gwneud y cynnydd mwyaf posibl. Ochr yn ochr â gosod strategaeth, bydd gan y Cynllun nod penodol o harneisio partneriaethau â buddsoddwyr, diwydiant, llywodraeth leol, cyflogwyr, busnesau bach a chanolig, mudiadau gwirfoddol ac undebau llafur. Bydd dyfnhau’r berthynas â phartneriaid yn y gymdeithas sifil yn helpu i gyflawni nodau’r Cynllun Iechyd 10 Mlynedd, gan gynnwys trwy feithrin model “Gwasanaeth Iechyd Cymdogaeth”.

Yr uchelgais yw defnyddio nifer o ddarparwyr – yn y GIG, y sector gwirfoddol, y sector annibynnol a mentrau cymdeithasol. Lle mae arloesedd mor gyflym yn digwydd heddiw o ran sut y gellir trawsnewid gwasanaethau trwy ddatblygiadau mewn gwyddoniaeth a thechnoleg, mae’r llywodraeth am ehangu eco-system y darparwyr. Er enghraifft, mae yna botensial enfawr i ystod eang o ddarparwyr gynnig gwerth gwirioneddol yn y Gwasanaeth Iechyd Cymdogaeth. Y nod sydd gennym yw sefydlu Canolfan Iechyd Cymdogaeth ym mhob cymuned, sef ‘siop un stop’ ar gyfer gofal i gleifion a’r man y bydd timau aml-ddisgyblaeth yn gweithredu ohono. Bydd Canolfannau Iechyd Cymdogaeth yn cydleoli gwasanaethau’r GIG, yr awdurdodau lleol a’r sector gwirfoddol i helpu i greu arlwy sy’n ateb anghenion y boblogaeth yn holistig.

We, the undersigned, commit to honour the Armed Forces Covenant and support the Armed Forces Community. We recognise the value Serving Personnel, both Regular and Reservists, Veterans and military families contribute to our business and our country.

The Armed Forces Covenant

An enduring covenant between the people of the United Kingdom, Her Majesty’s Government and all those who serve or have served in the Armed Forces of the Crown and their families

The first duty of Government is the defence of the realm. Our Armed Forces fulfil that responsibility on behalf of the Government, sacrificing some civilian freedoms, facing danger and, sometimes, suffering serious injury or death as a result of their duty. Families also play a vital role in supporting the operational effectiveness of our Armed Forces. In return, the whole nation has a moral obligation to the members of the Naval Service, the Army and the Royal Air Force, together with their families. They deserve our respect and support, and fair treatment.

Those who serve in the Armed Forces, whether Regular or Reserve, those who have served in the past, and their families, should face no disadvantage compared to other citizens in the provision of public and commercial services. Special consideration is appropriate in some cases, especially for those who have given most such as the injured and the bereaved.

This obligation involves the whole of society: it includes voluntary and charitable bodies, private organisations, and the actions of individuals in supporting the Armed Forces. Recognising those who have performed military duty unites the country and demonstrates the value of their contribution. This has no greater expression than in upholding this Covenant.

Section 1: Principles of the Armed Forces Corporate Covenant

1.1 We Black Country Safety Inspections Ltd will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:
- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Black Country Safety Inspections Ltd recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business. We will seek to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by pledging to the following:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Wounded, Injured And Sick
2.2 We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing.
