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 Earth Island Publishing 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 Earth Island Publishing 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
We also pledge the following:

AAIB Record-only UAS investigations reviewed: December 2024 - January 2025
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-13)

This is a list of AAIB UAS Record-only investigations that were reviewed during December 2024 - January 2025.

When an accident or incident is reported to the AAIB it can be classified as Formal, Field, Correspondence or Record Only investigation. Further information regarding the first three types of investigation can be found on our How we investigate page. (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/how-we-investigate/how-we-investigate)

An occurrence that is classified as being ‘Record Only’ is one that if investigated fully has little likelihood of identifying new safety lessons that will advance aviation safety.

This process of gathering and analysis of information is being carried out initially by the Duty Co-ordinator from the notification and will make a conclusion to ‘record only’ if there is enough information in order to analyse and draw a conclusion. If there is not enough information at notification stage, then a form is sent to the pilot in order to gather more information for analysis and a decision on whether a fuller investigation is needed.

The occurrence details are reviewed and recorded in tabular format and published bimonthly online and in the March, May, July, September, November and January Bulletins.

Details of previous record-only investigations can be found on the Record-only investigations page. (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/aaib-record-only-investigations)

What market day schedules can teach us about economic development
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-31)

Examines a natural experiment in Kenya in which market schedules over the past century were set quasi-randomly.

Abstract

The author identified a natural experiment in Western Kenya in which market schedules over the past century were set quasi-randomly. The author found that market schedule coordination causally and lastingly affected market attendance, driven by cross-attendance from other villages, as well as present day population and night-time luminosity as a proxy for economic activity.

This is an part of the Structural Transformation and Economic Growth (STEG) programme.

Transit movements and Temporary Storage with Simplified Customs Declaration Process
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-30)

Information about transit movements and Temporary Storage (TS) with Simplified Customs Declaration Process (SCDP).

Transit movements

How to end movements

There are 2 ways you can end transit movements.

You can end the movement either:
- at the frontier at an Office of Destination - when the goods have arrived, at the same time as an arrived (and accepted) import declaration that covers the goods on the Transit Accompanying Document (TAD) has been made
- by moving the goods to the authorised consignee location and ending the transit movement there at the same time as an arrived (and accepted) import declaration that covers the goods on the TAD has been made
Any procedure is allowable for the declaration following Transit, so both Simplified Declaration Process (SDP) and EIDR are permitted. The Transit or TAD Movement Reference Number (MRN) is required to be declared as a previous document reference on the declaration (Simplified Frontier Declaration (SFD) and corresponding Supplementary Declaration (SD) or entry in record and corresponding SD). Read Completion Instructions for DE 2/1 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/cds-uk-trade-tariff-volume-3-import-declaration-completion-guide/group-2-references-of-messages-document-certificates-and-authorisations#data-element-2-1) for more information.

Read Simplified Declaration Process (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/simplified-customs-declaration-process/simplified-declaration-process) for more information on SDP.

Read EIDR at the frontier (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/simplified-customs-declaration-process/entry-in-the-declarant-s-records#eidr-at-the-frontier) for more information on EIDR import at frontier.

If an arrived (and accepted) import declaration is unavailable, a deemed temporary storage declaration is made with the TAD serving as the temporary storage declaration. You must keep this in your temporary storage stock account records. The Transit or TAD MRN is required to be declared as a previous document reference.

Individual consignments on the TAD will need separate temporary storage declarations.

Each import declaration for the onward movement of the goods (for example, in free circulation) will need to be submitted:
- within 6 days of the transit goods entering temporary storage if the Authorised Consignee uses Authorised Consignee Temporary Storage (ACTS)
- within 90 days of the transit goods entering temporary storage if the Authorised Consignee uses an External Temporary Storage Facility (ETSF)
SDP or EIDR can be used for the import declaration removing goods from Temporary Storage (TS).

When the transit movement is closed, and the goods declared to another customs regime, for example, free circulation or TS, the financial guarantee is released. There is no requirement to pre-lodge the subsequent declaration to the onwards procedure.

Read EIDR removals from temporary storage (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/simplified-customs-declaration-process/entry-in-the-declarant-s-records#eidr-removals-from-temporary-storage) for more information on EIDR removals from TS.

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 CHURCHILL FREIGHT SERVICES 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 CHURCHILL FREIGHT SERVICES 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
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.
The new British Ambassador presents his credentials
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-15)

The Argentine Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein welcomed His Majesty Ambassador David Cairns on Monday 15 September 2025.

The new British Ambassador to Argentina, David Cairns (https://www.gov.uk/government/people/david-cairns), presented his credentials to Foreign Minister Gerardo Werthein during a meeting they held today at Palacio San Martin.

During the meeting, they reviewed the current state of bilateral relations and discussed opportunities for bilateral cooperation in different areas. They both underlined the importance of the bilateral relationship, which this year reached its 200th anniversary, having been formalised by signing of the Treaty of Amity, Commerce and Navigation in 1825.

Ambassador Cairns expressed his gratitude for the recent visit to London and Cambridge by Justice Minister Mariano Cúneo Libarona to take part in a symposium on economic crime, and also highlighted the upcoming visit to Argentina by the UK Minister of State in the Department of Business and Trade as a sign of the UK Government’s commitment to the bilateral relationship.

Ambassador Cairns said:

I am deeply honoured to represent my country in Argentina, especially in the year we celebrate the Bicentennial of our diplomatic relations. Over these 200 years, we have built cooperation across diverse areas such as trade, politics, science, and culture –ties that have become part of our shared identities as Britons and Argentines. I look forward to deepening those bonds and to supporting the clear priority of our Prime Minister and your President: growth and prosperity.

Ambassador Cairns arrived in Argentina on 13 September together with his wife Sharon. He joined the Foreign Office in 1993 and held various positions in London, Geneva and Tokyo before being appointed British Ambassador to Sweden. After a spell in the private sector, he returned this year to the British diplomatic service to succeed Kirsty Hayes as the UK’s diplomatic representative in Argentina.
