Restricting promotions of food and drink that is high in fat, sugar and salt
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-01)

The government is seeking views on its plans to restrict promotions of food and drink products high in fat, sugar and salt (HFSS) by location and by price.

This consultation asks what you think about:

restricting volume-based price promotions of HFSS food and drink that encourage people to buy more than they need, for example ‘buy one, get one free’ and free refills of sugary soft drinks

restricting the placement of HFSS food and drink at main selling locations in stores, such as checkouts, aisle ends and store entrances

This consultation also seeks your views on:
- which businesses, products and types of promotion should be included in the restrictions
- definitions for HFSS products, price promotions and locations in stores
- how businesses can put this into practice and whether they will face any difficulties
The proposed plans were set out in Childhood obesity: a plan for action, chapter 2 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/childhood-obesity-a-plan-for-action-chapter-2).

Our aim is to reduce excessive eating and drinking of HFSS products that can lead to children becoming overweight and obese. We also want businesses to promote healthier food and drink to help people make healthier choices.

Nearly 1 in 4 children in England are obese or overweight by the time they start primary school, and this rises to 1 in 3 by the time they leave primary school.

Obese children are more likely to become obese adults, and obesity in adulthood increases an individual’s risk of developing:
- type 2 diabetes
- heart disease
- fatty liver disease
- a number of cancers
An equality assessment (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/childhood-obesity-plan-for-action-chapter-2-equality-assessment) was carried out ahead of this consultation and the government has also published the methodology of the DHSC calorie model (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/department-of-health-and-social-care-dhsc-calorie-model).

We have also published ‘Childhood obesity plan: interactions between modelled policies’ (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/childhood-obesity-plan-interactions-between-modelled-policies), setting out how the policies in chapters 1 and 2 of the government’s childhood obesity plan could work together.

IPCC Task Group on Data Support to Climate Change Assessments (TG-Data): call for nominations
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-11)

The UK has been invited to nominate experts for participation in the IPCC’s Task Group on Data Support to Climate Change Assessments (TG-Data).

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is a scientific body of the United Nations that draws on the expertise of scientists from around the world to assess the science of climate change. It provides policy makers with:
- regular scientific assessments on climate change, its implications and potential future risks
- options for adaptation and mitigation
- assessments and reports which are relevant to policy, politically neutral, not prescriptive, highly influential
The assessments have:
- informed the creation of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
- drove the Paris Agreement’s long-term temperature goal to limit global temperature rise to well-below 2°C and pursue efforts to limit the increase to 1.5°C
- underpinned the agreement of the Glasgow Climate Pact (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/pm-glasgow-climate-pact-keeps-critical-15c-global-warming-goal-alive)
The 2018 IPCC Special Report on Global Warming of 1.5°C was also a major influence on the UK’s 2050 net zero target (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/6569cb331104cf000dfa7352/net-zero-government-emissions-roadmap.pdf) and led to the adoption of net zero targets in over 145 countries around the world.

IPCC Assessment Reports are released on a roughly 5 to 7 year cycle. The Sixth Assessment cycle concluded in 2023 with the publication of the sixth Synthesis Report. The Seventh Assessment cycle began in January 2024 and is expected to run until 2029.

The call for nominations will close at midnight BST on Thursday 10 April 2025.
Conflict, Stability and Security Fund: Africa annual review summaries 2021 to 2022
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-30)

This page includes 2021 to 2022 annual review summaries of Conflict, Stability and Security Fund programmes in Africa.

All Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF) programmes are reviewed carefully each year. These reviews assess:

technical and programme management standards including financial and risk management, value for money, conflict and gender sensitivity

contextual factors such as changes to the political environment

the outputs and outcomes during the year

Lessons learned are also identified.

An expert team conducts these reviews and include at least one team member who is independent from the programme. The team assesses at 2 levels: output (the direct result of programme activities) and outcome (the changes that these outputs deliver). Assessment scores are on a scale of 4, where outputs or outcomes meet or exceed expectations, to 1, where most targets were not met.

The CSSF team aims to publish information for all programmes. However, because some of the CSSF’s work is very sensitive, we cannot publish details of all programmes. The 2 main reasons for this are:

to protect national security

for the safety and security of beneficiaries, partners and partner governments

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

- 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 A.B. Walker & Son Limited 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

We also pledge the following:

-Working with the CTP in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for service leavers

Greenhouse gas removals: input to the independent review
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-16)

Dr Alan Whitehead invites evidence on how options for greenhouse gas removals can assist the UK in meeting our net zero targets, out to 2050.

The DESNZ Secretary of State commissioned an independent review (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/greenhouse-gas-removals-ggrs-independent-review) to consider how options for greenhouse gas removals (GGRs), including large-scale power bio-energy with carbon capture and storage (BECCS) and direct air carbon capture and storage (DACCS), can assist the UK in meeting our net zero targets, out to 2050. The review will report in the autumn of 2025.

As part of the review, the Chair, Dr Alan Whitehead, will consult widely with a diverse range of stakeholders, including developers, offtakers, industry, and experts in different fields, through a series of roundtables and direct meetings.

We are supplementing this with a broad call for evidence, giving the general public, developers and other organisations a chance to share their views on:
- potential scale of emissions savings
- opportunity and barriers to deployment at scale
- economic cost of deploying GGRs
- approaches to transition away from public investment and attract private investment
- role and opportunity to support government missions
- role and options to balance the UK’s residual emissions
- how GGRs could contribute to UK’s security of supply

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.

The UK law makes provision for customs authorities to make available certain customs procedures, facilitations and simplifications for economic operators who meet specific criteria and conditions. In order to gain access to these authorisations, Customs administrations must assess the economic operator’s ability to fulfil the legal obligations of the particular procedure or simplification concerned.

(This content has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000)

The Customs Authorisation and Approval Manual (CAA) is the main reference document for staff concerned with the authorisation and approval (under UK legislation) of economic operators and their premises for all customs procedures (including the Special Procedures).

As the CAA manual outlines the criteria, conditions and procedures for economic operators to become authorised for each special procedures, those guidelines will not be replicated in this Special Procedures manual. However, included in this section is an overview of the conditions/criteria which must be met for Special Procedures during the authorisation process.

Links to the relevant sections of the CAA manual are included in this Customs Special Procedures Manual for ease.

CAA Manual

The aim of the CAA manual is to:
- outline the processes to be followed when assessing applications for all customs authorisations and approvals
- explain the terms and conditions to be fulfilled by economic operators in order to qualify for each type of authorisation and approval
- detail the pre-authorisation checks and controls to be undertaken when assessing economic operators eligibility for authorisation or approval
- provide guidance on the procedures to be followed for applications which fail to meet the required standards.
Criteria and conditions of authorisations - Introduction/CAA07010

Note: Northern Ireland (NI) customs authorisations will continue to fall within the provisions of the Union Customs Code (UCC), as retained by the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 and CEMA 1979.
