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 Validus Security 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 Validus Security 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:

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.

CG52562 - Company reconstructions: capital gains cost of shares acquired
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-12)


TCGA92/S135 only covers the capital gains position of those who receive shares in (or debentures of) one company, company B, in exchange for their shares in (or debentures of)another company, company A. It does not affect the capital gains position of company B, which acquires the company A shares.

The base cost of the company A shares to company B will follow normal capital gains principles, and will depend on whether the market value in TCGA92/S17(1) applies.
- Where the market value rule applies, see CG14530 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg14530)+, the acquisition cost of the company A shares to company B will be the value of the holding of company A shares which company B acquires on the exchange.
- Where the market value rule does not apply, the acquisition cost of the company A shares to company B will be what company B gave for them. Although in these cases the consideration is satisfied by an issue of shares, the contract for sale and purchase of the company A shares will normally specify the agreed consideration as an amount of money. The acquisition cost of the company A shares to company B will be the amount specified in the contract, in accordance with the decision in Stanton v Drayton Commercial Investment Co Ltd, 55TC286, see CG12701 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg12701).

IMF supports growth agenda and fiscal framework
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-24)

IMF endorses Plan for Change growth mission and fiscal reforms.

- The IMF’s Article IV surveillance report has stated that economic recovery in the UK is underway, with growth projected at 1.2% in 2025 before gaining momentum next year.
- The IMF also endorsed the government’s fiscal plans which it says strike a balance between supporting growth and safeguarding fiscal sustainability, and the Growth Mission covers the right areas to lift productivity.
Since the election the government has been clear on the need to kickstart economic growth, built on stability and investment to deliver on the Plan for Change. The publication of the IMF’s first Article IV surveillance report on the UK economy since last year’s election reveals that the UK’s economic recovery is underway, and will see the third fastest economic growth in the G7 and the fastest growth among European G7 countries.

The IMF have also endorsed the government’s fiscal framework as growth-friendly, as well as appropriately accommodating spending pressures and investment needs, while safeguarding fiscal sustainability.

Structural reform and government strategy

Through the Growth Mission, the government is restoring stability, increasing investment, and reforming the economy to drive up prosperity and living standards across every region of the UK.

The IMF recognised the bold reforms that we have launched since taking office in July 2024. We have been clear that planning reform is central to unlocking private investment. The IMF has stated that the UK’s new industrial strategy has real potential to unlock private investment and boost UK productivity in key sectors.

Trade, global integration, and external environment

Given the high level of uncertainty emanating from the external environment, the IMF has stated that the government should continue advocating for a stable global trading system and welcomes recent efforts to strike trade agreements with key partners, including the EU, India, and the US, demonstrating a commitment to finding common ground and establishing a more predictable environment for UK exporters.
UK commits to international legal order with European partners
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-08)

The Attorney General Lord Hermer KC has reiterated the UK’s commitment to upholding international legal order at a flagship event with European partners held in London.

Resetting the UK’s relationship with Europe, and proactively and unequivocally supporting the international legal order, are amongst the Government’s top priorities.

To support this, the Attorney General’s Office (AGO) hosted a Venice Commission event on Monday 7 July in collaboration with the FCDO and the Bingham Centre for the Rule of law.

The event was attended by key members of the Council of Europe’s Venice Commission, member states and civil society groups.

Delegates discussed shared commitments to the rule of law, human rights and democracy, and contemporary challenges to the rules-based order, such as AI, migration and climate change.

The event also provided an opportunity for the UK and European partners to actively support the Council of Europe’s Venice Commission’s work on updating its Rule of Law checklist.

The event also marked the 35th anniversary of the creation of the Venice Commission (on 10 May 1990) and sought to identify ways in which the Venice Commission and the Council of Europe could give practical effect to the Principles.

Speaking at the event the Attorney General Lord Hermer KC said:

When I look at what you have been discussing today – protecting and promoting the rule of law and its importance to prosperity, freedom and security, I see discussions we need to have now – rooted in real world issues.

At a time when it feels like the world is becoming ever more polarised and there is a tendency for retreat into the familiar and the insular – it is important to use what we have at our disposal to encourage cooperation and shared understanding.

The Rule of Law Checklist is one of those rare things that does this and has intergovernmental support.

Lord Collins of Highbury, Minister for Multilateral and Human Rights, said:

The rule of law is not just a legal principle, but the foundation of public trust and institutional legitimacy, and only by communicating its everyday relevance can we build and sustain trust.

Members of The Venice Commission from across the world underscore the global desire for democracy and rights rooted in legal principles, and I hope the updated Rule of Law checklist will support efforts by governments globally to reinforce the crucial links between democracy, human rights, and the integrity of legal systems.

CIRD68030 - Land Remediation Relief: Tax Credit: Claims
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-02)


FA98/Sch18/Para83H

A company must make a claim for land remediation tax credit in its return for the relevant accounting period. The claim can either be made in the original return or in an amended return for the accounting period.

The time limit for the claim is the first anniversary of the filing date for the relevant company tax return.

Content of claim

FA98/Sch18/Para83I

The claim must specify the amount of the tax credit claimed.

Example

A Ltd makes a loss of £50,000. The amount of the qualifying land remediation loss is £40,000. It claims in its return to surrender £10,000 of that loss in return for a tax credit.A Ltd receives a tax credit of £1600 (£10,000 x 16%).

Late claims

The company may make a claim at a later date if an Officer of Revenue and Customs allows it.

Where there is a late claim, HMRC will deal with the claim broadly in accordance with the guidance at Statement of Practice SP5/01 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/statement-of-practice-5-2001). While this does not specifically refer to Land Remediation Relief tax credits, the approach is the general one that HMRC adopt.

Serious Fraud Office sets out next steps in ambitious plan
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-03)

The SFO has published its plan for the year ahead focusing on using new tools, enhancing its intelligence capacity and with domestic and international partners.

The SFO today published its plan for the year ahead focusing on using new tools, enhancing its intelligence capacity and working ‘more vigorously’ with domestic and international partners.

The Business Plan 2025-26 is the next step in the SFO’s ambition to be bolder and more pragmatic as an organisation.

This approach has already delivered faster progression of cases with stricter case discipline creating capacity to open eight new investigations and charge a case within 15 months of opening.

This year, the SFO aims to use the new “failure to prevent fraud” offence, part of the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act, which comes into force in September. The plan also includes delivery of refreshed corporate guidance for engaging with the SFO and advancing plans for a whistleblower incentivisation scheme.

Operational divisions will also begin rolling out Technology Assisted Review (TAR), which has been found during a pilot to review documents for disclosure up to 40 per cent faster than our standard method.

The SFO will continue to invest in its covert operational capacity and work more closely with key law enforcement and regulatory partners. The SFO recently created a new taskforce to tackle international bribery and corruption, with key partners Switzerland and France

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 Newport Town Council 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 Newport Town Council 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
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.
