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 Concord Rangers FC 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 Concord Rangers FC 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.
IHTM47070 - Long-term UK residence test: Introduction to Double Taxation Conventions
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


From 6 April 2025 a person’s UK Inheritance Tax position will depend on whether they are a long-term UK resident (IHTM47000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm47000)).

A double taxation convention between the UK and a foreign country may apply if a person is in scope for UK Inheritance Tax or its equivalent in the convention country. The UK currently has 10 double taxation conventions in place which have been negotiated between the fiscal authority in each country. (IHTM27161 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm27161)).

A double taxation convention seeks to eliminate double taxation by assigning taxing rights to one country or the other and, on occasions where both countries retain their right to tax the same assets, it determines which country will allow and apply a credit.

Where primary taxing rights cannot be established, a tiebreaker set out within the convention will be applied.

Each convention varies in its approach to eliminating double taxation and some only apply in respect of duty or taxes imposed on death whilst others also apply for charges imposed on other occasions i.e. lifetime transfers.

From 6 April 2025, where a double tax convention operates by reference to whether the UK treats a person as UK domiciled for Inheritance Tax purposes (deemed domicile), a person will be treated as UK domiciled if they are a long-term UK resident. Deemed domicile is relevant to some of the double tax conventions (IHTM47071 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm47071)) but not others (IHTM47072 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm47072)).

However, where a person is treated as domiciled or long-term resident in the UK for the purposes of Inheritance Tax because they have made a spousal domicile election (IHTM13040 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm13040)) (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm13040) or a long-term UK residence election (IHTM47031 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm47031)) this will be disregarded in applying any of the existing double tax conventions.

Open competitions launched for Independent Prevent Commissioner and Commissioner for Countering Extremism
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-14)

The government has launched open competitions for two roles.

Today, two open competitions have been launched for the role of permanent Independent Prevent Commissioner (https://apply-for-public-appointment.service.gov.uk/roles/8570?titleSearch=Independent+Prevent+Commissioner&bodySearch=®ulated=&bodyJustice=&remunerated=&status=open&sort=openingAt%3Adesc) and the role of Commissioner for Countering Extremism (https://apply-for-public-appointment.service.gov.uk/roles/8568?titleSearch=Commissioner+for+Countering+Extremism&bodySearch=®ulated=&bodyJustice=&remunerated=&status=open&sort=openingAt%3Adesc).

In December 2024, the Home Secretary announced (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/government-outlines-new-action-to-tackle-radicalisation) the introduction of a new Independent Prevent Commissioner role. In January 2025, Lord David Anderson KC was confirmed (https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/southport-attack-next-steps) as the Interim Prevent Commissioner until the appointment of a permanent holder. The commissioner will have the specific remit of reviewing the programme’s effectiveness, identifying gaps and problems before they emerge. The appointment will be announced in due course.

The Commission for Countering Extremism (CCE) (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/commission-for-countering-extremism) provides the government with independent expert advice on extremism, with the current commissioner, Robin Simcox’s fixed term due to end in July. He has held the appointment since March 2021, first in an interim capacity, then on a substantive basis since July 2022. The appointment of a new commissioner will also be announced in due course.

The role of Independent Adviser on Political Violence and Disruption, previously held by Lord Walney, will come to an end. The CCE will take forward work as part of its new strengthened remit.

Security Minister, Dan Jarvis, said:

To continue our fight against extremism and terrorism in whatever form they take, we need expert advice and oversight. The role holders will be crucial in those efforts, and I look forward to working with the successful candidates.

I would also like to thank Lord Walney and Robin Simcox for their work in their respective roles as Independent Advisor on Political Violence and Disruption and as Commissioner for Countering Extremism.

National curriculum assessments: maladministration reports
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-03)

Reports detailing the range of allegations of maladministration reported to the Standards and Testing Agency (STA).

The term ‘maladministration’ refers to any act that could jeopardise the integrity, security or confidentiality of the national curriculum assessments and could lead to results that do not reflect the unaided abilities of children.

It could refer to a range of actions, including test papers being incorrectly opened, pupils cheating, over-aiding of pupils by test administrators or changes being made to pupils’ test scripts by someone other than the pupil.

These reports outline the numbers, sources and types of allegations of maladministration reported to STA’s maladministration team across reception, key stage 1 and key stage 2. They also present the numbers of amendments and annulments to results.
EM1605 - Opening the Enquiry: Communications: Factsheets
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-10)


The general information factsheets CC/FS1 (a and c) and factsheet CC/FS15 -Self assessment and old penalty rules, explain to taxpayers how settlements are concluded.

You must always issue the relevant general information factsheet when you open the enquiry. You must also issue the relevant penalty factsheets:
- CC/FS7a for inaccuracies
- CC/FS11 for failure to notify
- CC/FS15 for old Self Assessment penalties
- CC/FS18 (a and b) for late filing, or
- CC/FS19 for old employer and contractor penalties, whenever penalties covered by Article 6 European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) may be likely. You must also give the taxpayer, either verbally or in writing, the Human Rights Act (HRA) message, see EM1350 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/enquiry-manual/em1350) and factsheet CC/FS9 - The Human Rights Act and penalties.
You must issue the relevant penalty factsheet when you have reason to believe that a penalty may be due. Normally this will be immediately after you issue the HRA message or factsheets CC/FS9 - The Human Rights Act and penalties. You need to explain to the taxpayer how their disclosure and co-operation, see EM6050 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/enquiry-manual/em6050) (or for periods beginning on or after 1 April 2008, where the filing date is on or after 1 April 2009, the quality of disclosure, see CH82400 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch82400)), affects the final charge as soon as penalties become a possibility. However you must not refer to penalties before you have good reason to believe the taxpayer's return or accounts are incorrect. Even when you start to discuss the possibility that a penalty may be due, you should not suggest that you will charge a penalty until you have established all the relevant facts and ruled out a referral to the Evasion Management Team (EMT).

The actual issue of the penalty and HRA factsheets calls for some tact, but you must issue the factsheets
- as soon as you have formed a clear view on the existence of a culpable understatement or potential lost revenue, and
- before you make further enquiries.
You should give the taxpayer and agent each a copy of the factsheets and ask them to retain them. You should deal with any questions about the factsheets, but it will not usually be possible to give the taxpayer any indication of the amount of penalty which might be expected until all the facts are known, Statement of Assets has been completed and the tax has been agreed. On rare occasions all of these might be done in the same meeting in which the factsheets are given, but generally you should not put forward your views on the level of penalties until the settlement meeting.

It is particularly important in any case of suspected serious evasion that you do not prejudice any future action which Criminal Investigations might wish to take. If you suspect evasion, follow the guidance at CH301100 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch301100).

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 Ceremonial News 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 Ceremonial News 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
- Discounts
We also pledge the following:

-working with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP), in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for Service Leavers

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.
Separated families statistics: April 2014 to March 2024
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-27)

Statistics on separated families and their child maintenance arrangements. These statistics also include additional tables on the characteristics of separated families by child maintenance arrangement type.

These statistics provide estimates of the following:

the number of separated families in Great Britain and the number of children in those families

the proportion of separated families with a child maintenance arrangement and whether this arrangement is statutory or non-statutory

the total amount of child maintenance received by parents with care, by arrangement type

the net impact of child maintenance payments on the number of children in low-income households

characteristics of separated parents and the impacts of child maintenance payments on where their households are represented in the income distribution

This release includes the following additional estimates of the characteristics of parents with care and non-resident parents, by child maintenance arrangement type:

gender

age

reported disability status

ethnic group

marital status

This release also contains revisions to data for the 2022 to 2023 financial year. The following tables are affected:

Table 2: The proportion of separated families with a child maintenance arrangement

Tables 6-9: The position of separated parent households in the Great Britain income distribution

Table 10: The percentage of children in parent with care households who remain in low income after child maintenance payments

These changes result from two factors:

1. Use of a new question response in the survey to help inform which parents have non-statutory arrangements

2. A revision to income data for 2022 to 2023 due to the exclusion of one element of the low- income benefits and tax credits Cost of Living Payment

Amendments to UK law relating to transfer pricing, permanent establishment and Diverted Profits Tax
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-28)

This tax information and impact note is about reforms to UK law relating to transfer pricing, permanent establishment and Diverted Profits Tax.

This measure in relation to transfer pricing has been designed to simplify the rules in a number of areas including the participation condition, intangibles, commissioners’ sanctions, UK-to-UK transfer pricing, and financial transactions.

This measure in relation to permanent establishment has been designed to bring the UK’s rules into line with the latest international consensus on both the definition of a permanent establishment and the attribution of profits to a permanent establishment. It will also clarify which supporting guidance and materials can be used in conjunction with UK legislation and update the legislation and Statement of Practice on the Investment Manager Exemption.

This measure in relation to Diverted Profits Tax creates a new charging provision for Unassessed Transfer Pricing Profits within Corporation Tax. This is a significant simplification, revoking the Diverted Profits Tax in its entirety while retaining the essential features of the regime within Corporation Tax.

The government has published draft legislation to consult on how each area is legislated for in the UK.

The measure links to other measures in the government’s International Tax reform package including, amendments to the transfer pricing small and medium-sized enterprise exemption and the international controlled transactions schedule.

Validation and selection of ADP entries for checking is via the CHIEF System. Direct Trader Input (DTI) traders either key the entry details into the computer using their own computer terminals or sending an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) message that contains the entry details, under CIE Customs staff key in the entry details.

The computer validates the information to:
- ensure the coded boxes on the entry have been completed with a valid code
- ensure that where a relationship exists between boxes, they are compatible
- ensure any additional information codes and statements (Tariff Volume 3 Appendix C9) that are required by the CPC have been completed
- calculate the appropriate revenues, allowing any eligible reliefs claimed, and
- select entries requiring scrutiny of supporting documents and in some cases goods examination.
The originator of the message must be advised immediately of any incorrect or incompatible boxes. Errors must be corrected before any further processing can be undertaken.

CHIEF advises of acceptance of entries by EDI messages and by producing a printed Entry Acceptance Advice output E2 or H2.
