Cyber Security and Resilience Bill
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-18)

The Cyber Security and Resilience (Network and Information Systems) Bill proposes new laws to improve UK cyber defences and protect our essential public services.

Overview

The government introduced the Cyber Security and Resilience Bill to Parliament for its first reading on 12 November 2025.

The Cyber Security and Resilience Bill will reform and add to the existing Network and Information Systems (NIS) Regulations 2018 (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/nis-directive-and-nis-regulations-2018), to increase UK defences against cyber attacks, better protecting the services the public rely on to go about their normal lives – to switch on lights, turn on the tap to safe water, and know the NHS is there to support them.

The Bill will deliver a fundamental step change in the UK’s national security – making essential and digital services more secure in the face of cyber criminals and state actors who want to disrupt our way of life. Reforms will underpin greater economic stability, helping grow the economy for working people, by reducing business cost and disruption, and supporting investment.

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 Avyse Partners 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 Avyse Partners 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
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- 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.

VATREVCON33500 - How the construction reverse charge works: End users and intermediary suppliers: Different treatment by qualifying end user and intermediary businesses
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-02)


The intermediary supplier and end user concepts were created to cater for situations where both the business meeting intermediary criteria and the business meeting end user criteria wanted to be treated as end users. However, they are optional, so in landlord and tenant situations where the businesses might be totally separate in all other respects, there may be situations where they make different decisions.

Example: A landlord buys construction services and makes an onward supply of the same services to the tenant. The landlord qualifies as an intermediary supplier under SI 2019/892 art. 8(1)(b)(ii)(bb) (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2019/892/article/8) as having an interest in the same land as the expected end user. However, the landlord is not obliged to opt to be an intermediary supplier and can still receive the specified supplies under the reverse charge where the tenant opts to be an end user.
We must have enduring peace in Ukraine, which ensures Ukraine’s future security and upholds the UN Charter: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-26)

Statement by Ambassador James Kariuki, UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on Ukraine.

I would like to start by thanking Assistant Secretary-General Joyce Msuya for the briefing today.

Colleagues, last month marked three years since President Putin launched his illegal and unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The invasion displaced over 10 million people. Today, 12.7 million remain in need of urgent humanitarian support.

The suffering caused by Russian forces is well known to this Council: war crimes, torture of civilians and prisoners of war, mass killings, the forced deportation of thousands of children, the forced cleansing and Russification of areas under their illegal control.

It is a shocking record for any state, let alone a Permanent Member of the Security Council.

In recent weeks, Russian drone and missile attacks have intensified nationwide, with daily reports of damage to residential areas and civilian infrastructure across multiple Oblasts.

According to the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mechanism of Ukraine, in one attack which took place on 7 March, two ballistic missiles hit a residential area in Donetsk Oblast killing 11 people and destroying homes.

Emergency responders who arrived to treat the wounded were then targeted by further strikes.

This has to stop.

The UK is clear that we want to see an end to the fighting and to the killing. We must have enduring peace in Ukraine.

Putin could bring about peace tomorrow by withdrawing his forces and ending his illegal invasion.

President, we welcome US efforts towards just and lasting peace. And we welcome President Zelenskyy’s clear commitment to peace and readiness to move quickly towards a comprehensive and lasting settlement.

In agreeing to a full, immediate and unconditional ceasefire, Ukraine has shown that it is the party of peace.

Russia must now agree to this without further delay.

Ukraine’s humanitarian needs are immense, and the UK will continue to do what we can in support.

To date, we have committed £477 million in humanitarian support to Ukraine, providing its people with food, water, shelter, and medical care, alongside support to safeguard the rights, dignity, and well-being of civilians.

We repeat our call on Russia to end its brutal war, withdraw from Ukrainian territory within its internationally recognised borders.

Until that day comes, the UK will continue to work with Ukraine and our international partners to achieve a just and lasting peace, which ensures Ukraine’s future security and upholds the core principles of the United Nations Charter.

RFIG20780 - Statutory Residence Test (SRT): Days spent in the UK: Workers with relevant jobs
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


If an individual has a job aboard a vehicle, aircraft or ship, they might have a 'relevant job'. If so, some parts of the statutory residence test will apply slightly differently to them.

An individual will have a relevant job if they meet both Conditions A and B:

Condition A
- they hold an employment where their role consists of duties which are performed on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship while it is travelling, or
- they carry on a trade and the activities of that trade or the services they provide are on board a vehicle, aircraft or ship while it is travelling, and they are present in person on that vehicle, aircraft or ship.
AND

Condition B
- substantially all of the trips made in performing those duties or carrying out those activities are cross-border trips. That is, that involve crossing an international boundary at sea, in the air or on land.
Example 1

Angela is a self-employed consultant whose job is to carry out safety assessments on international aircraft at Manchester airport. She does not travel with the aircraft in order to do her work. As the services Angela provides are not undertaken while the aircraft is making a cross-border trip, she does not have a relevant job.

Examples of relevant jobs may include pilots, airline cabin crew, cross-channel ferry staff, mariners, fishermen and lorry drivers, where substantially all of the journeys are cross-border trips. Although each case will turn on its own facts, an individual is likely to be considered to have a relevant job if 80% or more of their journeys involve cross-border trips.

In deciding whether or not an individual falls within one of the categories of relevant job, duties or activities of a purely incidental nature can be ignored. For instance, where a pilot whose job consists of making long haul international flights; attends a meeting in the UK to hear an announcement about the airline's restructuring, the duties spent at the meeting are incidental to the duties of flying the plane, and so can be ignored.

Example 2

Preeya is a member of a cabin crew on board flights between London and Geneva for a short-haul airline. For 1 month during the year she changes her shifts and works on UK domestic flights. However, substantially all of the trips she makes in the performance of her duties are cross-border ones, Preeya does have a relevant job.

An individual will not have a relevant job simply because they occasionally work during a journey from 1 country to another; for example, if they catch up on business emails during a flight from their base in 1 country to visit a client in another country.

ARTG8570 - First-tier and Upper Tribunals: Preparing for tribunal: Multiple parties and / or multiple appeals
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-03)


In certain circumstances, when HMRC issue an appealable decision, anybody named within the decision has a right to ask the tribunal to decide the matter. For example, where we issue a decision under Section 8 Social Security Contributions (Transfer of Functions, etc.) Act 1999 (Great Britain) or article 7 of the Social Security (Transfer of Functions, etc.) (Northern Ireland) Order 1999 (SI 1999 No 671), where workers/employees are involved, usually both the engager/employer and workers/employees have a right of appeal.

Where any of those named in decisions appeal, the litigator should ask the tribunal to direct that all appeals related to this decision be consolidated or heard together under rule 5(3)(b). In doing so, the litiga should provide details of the additional appeals to assist the Tribunals Service in identifying the additional appeals.
Evaluation of the County Lines Programme
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-30)

This report presents the findings from the impact evaluation of the County Lines Programme conducted by the London School of Economics.

The County Lines Programme aims to tackle the drug gangs that run county lines through violence and exploitation. The Home Office commissioned the London School of Economics to independently assess the impact of the programme on a range of crime types, primarily serious violence.

The evaluation found that in the 4 funded taskforce areas, the programme led to a reduction in hospital admissions for both drug misuse and weapon-related injuries (mainly due to fewer hospitalisations due to stabbings). However, police-recorded violent crime rose over the same period, likely due to better reporting and more police activity in those areas.

The evaluation also found limited spillover effects from the programme in other, non-funded force areas, which supports the assessment that the County Lines model is becoming more localised to exporter force areas.

- their date of birth and, if appropriate, their date of death,
- the full name of their spouse or civil partner who is domiciled in the UK, and
- the date the election is to take effect from.
If you receive an election that does not contain all of the information we need you should write to the sender, using standard letter SL16, to ask for the missing information. The election should be sent to:

Warsaw Human Dimension Conference 2025: UK statement to opening session
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-08)

Ambassador Neil Holland recalls the importance of OSCE commitments on human rights and fundamental freedoms and condemns Russia and Belarus.

Thank you, Mr Chair.

Congratulations to the Director, Representative and High Commissioner on the work they have done in their first few months in office. Please rest assured of the UK’s continued support for - and commitment to - the success of the OSCE, including the autonomous institutions.

But since we are in Warsaw, allow me to extend particular thanks for ODIHR’s support, and assistance to participating States in the last twelve months.

And finally, thank you to the Chair in Office, and Poland, our hosts, for their efforts and perseverance in arranging this Conference.

By holding States to account for implementation of our shared commitments on human rights and democratic institutions, these Conferences sit at the centre of the human dimension and the OSCE’s concept of comprehensive security.

The UK condemns Russia’s decision to block the mandated Human Dimension Implementation Meeting again this year. This is a further, pointless attempt to undermine scrutiny of Russia’s record by its fellow OSCE countries, civil society and the wider international community, as mandated by Ministers.

For the UK the Warsaw Human Dimension Conference symbolises our shared commitment to respect human rights and fundamental freedoms. Last week’s horrific and abhorrent attack on a synagogue on Manchester was a tragic reminder that we should never take human rights or fundamental freedoms for granted. Those values are as relevant and vital as ever and need constant defence.

At the forefront of our minds during this conference are the ongoing atrocities being committed by Russia in Ukraine. ODIHR’s seventh Interim Report showed stark evidence of ongoing grave violations of international humanitarian law and international human rights law by Russia.

That pattern of widespread and systematic violations has also been demonstrated in the independent and expert Moscow Mechanism reports published in 2022, 2023, 2024 and earlier this autumn.

In this fiftieth anniversary year, I can only reiterate that the United Kingdom stands by the Decalogue and the OSCE principles and commitments developed since 1975. We will therefore continue to call on Russia, Belarus and other OSCE participating States to cease repression, release political prisoners and to safeguard space for independent media and civil society.

Finally, I wish to pay tribute to human rights defenders and other brave members of civil society, many of whom operate in increasingly oppressive environments. The perspective of civil society is vital in building an understanding of the human rights situation at grassroots level. So we are pleased to see so many civil society representatives joining this conference. You represent the spirit of Helsinki and we will continue to support you and amplify your work.

Thank you.

MTT61040 - Charging mechanisms: The charge: The amount charged
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


The amount of MTT for which a responsible member is liable is determined by a four-step process:

Step 1: Of the group’s members for which the responsible member is responsible, determine which have top-up amounts or additional top-up amounts, and the extent of those amounts.

Step 2: Determine how much of each of those amounts should be attributed to the responsible member (see MTT61050 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt61050)).

Step 3: Add together the amounts attributed to the responsible member.

Step 4: If the total amount is not in sterling, convert it to sterling (see MTT09100 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt09100)).

Exemptions reform to the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-27)

Consultation on an exemptions reform to the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016.

We want to know what you think about our proposals to reform the process for setting and amending environmental permitting exemptions.

It is an opportunity to provide additional data and information, whether for or against.

Detail of feedback received

We received 79 responses from a range of individuals, businesses, public bodies and others. Of these responses, 64 responses were submitted via the Citizen Space portal and 15 were submitted via email.

Given the general support for these proposals, Defra plans to take appropriate steps so that the required amendments to the Environmental Permitting Regulations in England can be made in 2026.

In Wales, the Welsh Government supports the need for implementing these changes but, due to the timing of this publication, will not take a decision on amendments to regulations until after the Senedd elections in May 2026.

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 Telappliant 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 Telappliant 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.
