Judicial Summary

The Appellant, who suffered from PTSD as a result of his service in the RAF, made a claim for compensation under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS). The Secretary of State made an award at Table 3, Item 3, Level 10. This was confirmed on appeal by the Pensions Appeal Tribunal for Scotland (PAT(S)). The Appellant appealed to the Upper Tribunal, arguing that the award should be at least at Table 3, Item 2, Level 8.

CTM08348 - Corporation Tax: management expenses: pension contributions: sale of subsidiary
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-15)


Where a contribution is paid as the company winds down or sells off its assets (including subsidiaries), or parts of its business. it is a question of fact as to whether the payment
- is in respect of its investment business,
- is in respect of some other business (for example a trade or the business of a subsidiary), or
- is part of the cost of going out of business, see the examples at CTM08347 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08347).
Where a company with investment business is selling a subsidiary company it will generally be the case that the vendor company is able to demonstrate that any contribution it made was in respect of its investment business (CTM08353 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08353)), see example at CTM08347 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08347). The paying company will often view the payment, legitimately, as being for the purpose of its reputation in not wishing to dispose of a company which carries a substantial deficit or to protect the morale of its continuing employees.

Such a sale may create a PeA95/S75 debt, a liability in the departing subsidiary, see CTM08354 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08354). The parent (vendor company) may pay the debt or guarantee it. Examination of the facts will show whether or not any payment was made in respect of its investment business and therefore whether relief is available.

Establishing the purpose will require a critical examination of all the documents and the evidence surrounding both the sale and the payment to establish the company’s purpose/intentions at the time the decision to pay the contribution was taken. Where it is clear from the evidence that the contribution was made in respect of the investment business the argument should be accepted. In less clear cut cases it is important to bear in mind the potential damage to its reputation for a company seen to be failing to fund properly the pensions for pensioners related to it or its group or associates.

Where such a contribution relates to orphan employees, CTM08355 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08355), and the subsidiary could not meet any payment from its own resources before the sale, it is also very likely that the company can demonstrate that the contribution was made in respect of its investment business.

Conversely if the subsidiary could have met the liability itself, or if the liability relates to its (the subsidiary’s) own current employees, then the reasons for a parent meeting the liability would be weakened. The parent’s reasons for making the payment would need to be investigated further as outlined above to establish whether it had paid the contribution in respect of its investment business.

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 McClelland & Chase Communications Bureau 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 McClelland & Chase Communications Bureau 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
- 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.

Mae hyn wedi helpu i adeiladu ymddiriedaeth rhwng asiantaethau a chydweithrediad â’r gymdeithas sifil mewn ymateb i ddigwyddiadau.

A Transport Manager in common
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-17)

Following a pair of public inquiries, transport manager Michael James has found himself without repute and with a disqualification of considerable length.

The Traffic Commissioner for the North West, David Mullan heard the cases of De-Luxe Coach Services Ltd and South Derbyshire Coaches Ltd in quick succession. These companies and public inquiries had one notable thing in common, a transport manager who had previously lost and regained his repute.

Both companies also had a similar range of failings; maintenance deficiencies, unsuitable inspection records and an absence of brake testing.

Mr. James readily accepted that he had failed in his Transport Manager responsibilities. His passion for buses led to a focus on that as a hobby, alongside a focus on the buying and selling of buses. The commissioner was told that his personality is such that he struggles to delegate. This resulted in him taking on too much responsibility and failing to focus on the important issues.

Mr Mullan said “Mr. James has failed in his lawful duty to ensure effective and continuous management of the Operator’s transport service. The failures are wide ranging and whilst I recognise that he has obtained certificates showing continuous professional development they actually give me some cause for concern. To be so absent of one’s duties, despite recent training, leaves me questioning how could Mr. James actually be rehabilitated.”

The transport manager lost his repute and was disqualified for seven years from both holding or obtaining an Operator’s licence and from acting in the capacity of transport manager for any road transport undertaking.

De-Luxe Coach Services Ltd had its licence revoked but South Derbyshire Coaches Ltd was suspended for 21 days to ensure minimal disruption to school services, and for alternative arrangements to be made for registered services, both of which are reliant upon this operator.

Source: gov.uk (2025-06-19)

Thirteenth edition of the IPO tracking study into the extent of online copyright infringement, digital behaviours and attitudes among people aged 12+ in the UK

This continues work originally commissioned by Ofcom and sponsored by the Intellectual Property Office (IPO) in 2012. The study is now conducted bi-annually to ensure that the IPO can monitor the impact of new online platforms on infringement behaviours.

The report is supported by data tables. These provide access to data underpinning the data visualisations in this publication. Links to the relevant data download are included at the beginning of the Main Report and within each chapter of the Annex Report.

The IPO has commissioned a short-form version of the Online Copyright Infringement Tracker Survey, including translations into Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish alongside the English version. This has been done to aid replication of this methodology. These are available upon request by emailing xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx).

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.

Risk assessment: sheep pox and goat pox to Great Britain from EU and EFTA member states
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-24)

A qualitative risk assessment on the likelihood of sheep pox and goat pox virus incursion into Great Britain from EU and EFTA member states.

This risk assessment provides a qualitative assessment of the risk of sheep and goats in Great Britain becoming infected with sheep pox and goat pox (SPGP) through legal and illegal trade as well as personal movements from EU and EFTA member states.

The annual likelihood of SPGP being introduced into Great Britain through all pathways ranged from medium (event occurs regularly) to very low (very rare but cannot be excluded) with high uncertainty.

The annual likelihood of exposure was considered high (event occurs very often) with medium uncertainty.

The potential consequences of a SPGP incursion, mainly given the potential economic and welfare impacts on Great Britain’s commercial lamb industry, were considered major with medium uncertainty.
