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 Pathfinder Expeditions UK 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 Pathfinder Expeditions UK 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

- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Discounts
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.

Home Office procurement card spend over £500: 2025
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)

Details of all government procurement card transactions for £500 and over in 2025.

This is intended to help you understand and interpret the data published by the Home Office, its agencies and non-departmental public bodies.

Background information

The government procurement card (GPC) is a branded purchasing card, not a credit card.

It is provided through a framework agreement between Government Procurement Services (the national procurement partner for UK public services) and 6 card issuers. Barclaycard is the card issuer for Home Office.

GPC is an efficient solution specifically for low risk, low value purchases and enables government to buy from small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).

What are the benefits of GPC?
- access to data to help monitor spend and budgets more effectively
- reducing the number of invoices: card transactions are consolidated and paid centrally, with no risk of interest charges
- saves money and provides efficient processes
- electronic cardholder statements, supporting sustainability by reducing paper and resultant waste
What are the benefits of GPC to SMEs?
- prompt payments in line with government initiatives
- improved cash flow
- reduces bad debt and late payments
- reduced administrative costs
GPC policy and procedures

Use of the GPC is governed by the Home Office government procurement card policy that is derived from the central government procurement card policy.

GPC is not permitted to purchase alternative goods or services which are available on Home Office contracts.

GPC transparency

In support of the government’s transparency agenda, the Home Office are publishing details of all transactions of £500 and over. The data published will include the:
- transaction posting date
- reference number
- merchant name
- transaction amount
The data are published monthly, 2 months in arrears.

- full-time equivalent staff numbers
- staff costs
These figures are not official statistics. They are internal workforce management information published in the interests of transparency.

These figures have not been reconciled centrally with any National Statistics. Where differences appear between the monthly information and National Statistics, clarifying comments will be provided. The ONS quarterly public sector employment statistics provide an official headline measure for comparing the overall size of employment in central government organisations with other sectors of the economy at the relevant quarterly reference point.

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 Hubbul 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 Hubbul 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

Advice for manufacturers of DMHTs that qualify as software as a medical device (SaMD) on understanding new post marketing surveillance rules and examples of how they apply.

One of the roles of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is to perform market surveillance of medical devices on the UK market and take decisions over the marketing and supply of devices in the UK.

In 2024, the government put in place legislation to clarify and strengthen the post-market surveillance requirements for medical devices in use in Great Britain. These measures came into force on 16 June 2025 and will facilitate greater traceability of incidents and trends and allow the MHRA to act swiftly when needed, supporting better risk management and containment of safety issues and reducing harm.

HMAG152801 - Excise duty points: irregularity occurring in Northern Ireland during a distance selling arrangement to Northern Ireland
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-30)


The relevant provisions are contained in The Excise Goods (Holding, Movement and Duty Point) Regulations 2010 (as amended) in force immediately before 11pm on 31 December 2020 as modified and applied in relation to excise goods in Northern Ireland by Part 1 of the Excise Duties (Northern Ireland Miscellaneous Modifications and Amendments) (EU Exit) Regulations 2020 (as amended) (commonly known as NI HMDP)).

This section applies where an irregularity occurs, or is detected, in Northern Ireland during a movement of excise goods that have already been released for consumption in an EU member state and are supposed to be moving to Northern Ireland under a distance selling arrangement but the requirements of Part 12 have not been complied with.

Where an irregularity occurs, or is detected, in Northern Ireland in these circumstances, an excise duty point arises under regulation 84.

Excise duty point

Where there is an excise duty point under regulation 84, the time of the duty point is when the irregularity occurs in Northern Ireland, or where it is not possible to establish when the irregularity occurred, the time when it was detected. Where it is not possible to establish whether the irregularity occurred in Northern Ireland or an EU Member State, it shall be deemed to have occurred in Northern Ireland at the time of the detection.

Where there is a failure to comply with the registration requirements for distance sales in Part 12, an irregularity is deemed to have occurred under regulation 84.

Person/s liable to pay the duty

The person/s liable to pay the duty when there is an irregularity in these circumstances are shown in regulation 17.

Under regulation 17(2)(b), the person liable to pay the duty is the consignor of the goods or their appointed tax representative in Northern Ireland.

Any other person participating in the irregularity is jointly and severally liable to pay the duty under regulation 17(3).

Circumstances when excise duty is not due

Where an excise duty point is deemed to have occurred in Northern Ireland and, within 3 years of the start of the movement, we ascertain that the irregularity occurred in an EU Member State and the duty has been paid or is not due in that EU Member State, this means that excise duty is no longer due in Northern Ireland (regulation 85 refers).

If the excise goods are lost or destroyed during a movement (supposedly under a distance selling arrangement) and HMRC are satisfied that the goods have been irretrievably lost or destroyed (for example, due to an accident, the nature of the goods, or some other unforeseeable event) then there is no excise duty point and no excise duty is due on those goods. This is by virtue of regulation 21 or 21A of NI HMDP.

However, if the excise goods are stolen during the movement, excise duty is due on those goods.
