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 MayaRail 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 MayaRail 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
- Discounts
- Armed Forces Charities
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.

BKLM740180 - Double Taxation Relief: France: split ownership
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-30)


Regulation 10 of SI2012/458

With many banks being part of a multi-national group it is possible that the group may have entities subject to the bank levy which are held via different ownership chains and as such only some of the entities will be subject to two levies.

For example, a US bank has two UK sub-groups subject to the bank levy. One is held direct from the US while the other is held via a French intermediate holding company and is part of the French sub-group.

In such a situation relief in respect of the French bank levy will only be due for the bank levy on the part of the group held via the French intermediary holding company. Regulation 10 restricts the credit available so that no double taxation relief will be allowed against the bank levy in respect of the sub-group held directly from the US.

HCOTEG10850 - Introduction and overview of oils activity: roles and responsibilities: Fraud Investigation Service (FIS) - Mobile Enforcement Team (MET)
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-29)


The MET is a part of the Fraud Investigation Service (FIS). The MET's main goal is to detect and disrupt individuals and organisations who are determined and deliberate in their attempts to evade our controls.

Within the oils regime, in a similar way to Border Force and Revenue Fraud Detection Team (RFDT), MET teams are made up of specially trained officers using mobile laboratories equipped to sample, detect and therefore deter the illegal importation of foreign rebated oils - particularly those originating from Ireland - and similarly for the illegal non-accepted purpose use of UK rebated oils. Their main role also includes dealing with larger commercial detections and laundering plants.

For further information on the work of METs see HCOTEG122600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/oils-technical-manual/hcoteg122600).

COM100100 - Penalties: late delivery of returns: reasonable excuse
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-13)


This subject is presented as follows.

Reasonable excuse (#IDAMNFOF)Request for further time (#IDAOOFOF)

Reasonable excuse

The statutory filing date for a return is at least 12 months after the end of the Accounting Period (AP). In most cases COTAX issues a reminder about one month before that date if a return has not been logged.

The normal amount of time allowed should therefore be adequate to keep successful claims for reasonable excuse to a minimum.

However, there will be a few occasions each year when companies make every endeavour to meet their filing obligations but fail by reason of unforeseen misfortune.

It is not the intention to penalise such companies, provided that there was a reasonable excuse for the failure and it was remedied as soon as could reasonably be expected after the excuse had run out.

There is no statutory definition of reasonable excuse, each appeal against a penalty determination must be considered on merit.

For further information about reasonable excuse, see the Compliance Handbook at CH160100 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch160100) onwards and the CT Manual at CTM94140 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm94140) and CTM94150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm94150).

Request for further time

A company may request further time in which to deliver its return when it does not expect to meet its filing date. It may make the request at any time before delivery of the return.

If you agree to the request the company will not be liable to a penalty if it delivers its return within the further time allowed. For more information about further time, see the CT Manual at CTM94130 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm94130).

In considering a request for further time you should apply the reasonable excuse provisions described at CTM94140 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm94140) and CTM94150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm94150).

If you accept that a company has a reasonable excuse for the anticipated delay, you should allow further time up to the date when you expect the reasonable excuse to cease.

You record an agreement to further time on COTAX by using function RDAC (Record Filing Date Adjustment) to enter a deferred filing date.

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 Elsewhen 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;

Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Elsewhen 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 Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Discounts
- Armed Forces Charities
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.
