UK-India CETA Chapter 28: General Provisions and Exceptions
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-24)

Text of chapter 28 of the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and India.

This chapter allows the UK and India to take various kinds of measures that would not otherwise conform with the commitments made in the agreement, to serve the legitimate public policy objectives set out within the individual exceptions. These flexibilities protect domestic policy space and preserve the UK and India’s rights to regulate in the public interest.

The chapter incorporates the General Exceptions found within the World Trade Organisation’s General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) and General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), and a dedicated exception relating to national security.

It also provides policy-making discretion in matters of taxation and macroeconomic management, and a provision recalling the exclusions and exceptions elsewhere in the agreement that are applicable to the National Health Service (NHS).

The agreement is not yet in force. Both the UK and India are required to complete their respective domestic procedures for the agreement to come into effect. Once ratified by both countries, businesses will be able to trade under its terms.

The evidence presented provides a reasonable assessment of the effectiveness and continuing relevance of the Habitats Regulations. The analysis draws on a range of sources, including stakeholder feedback, government data, and published literature. While the regulations have partially met their objectives of protecting habitats and species, shortcomings are identified in implementation, interpretation inconsistencies, and achieving environmental outcomes.

The recommendation to amend the regulations to address these issues is well-supported. The PIR could be strengthened with better quantification of impacts.

CTM18770 - Shadow ACT: unrelieved surplus: asset transferred after change in ownership of company
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


SI1999/358 reg18

Reg18 is modelled on ICTA88/S245B and follows the same approach. It restricts the set off of unrelieved surplus ACT where the company's capacity after the change in ownership derives wholly or in part from a gain on an asset transferred from another member of the new group.It applies where
- there is a change in the ownership of a company,
- after the change the company acquires an asset and TCGA92/S171 (1) applies to the acquisition, and
- a chargeable gain accrues to the company on the disposal of the asset within the period of three years beginning within the change of ownership.
When the conditions are met, the limit on the amount of unrelieved surplus ACT to be set against the company's liability to CT is reduced by 20 per cent of the chargeable gain.An acquired asset and the disposed asset are treated as the same asset if the value of the latter is derived in whole or in part from the former, see CTM81230 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm81230).

Importing wine
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-19)

How to certify and label wine imported into Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Certification for imported wine

If you’re importing wine from outside the EU directly into Northern Ireland, you need to provide an EU VI-1 pro-forma (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/export-or-move-wine-apply-for-a-pro-forma-eu-vi-1-document). This is to certify that the wine complies with EU regulations.

You do not need to provide a VI-1 pro-forma to import wine:
- into England, Scotland and Wales (from anywhere in the world)
- into Northern Ireland from the EU
Paying tax on imported wine

Find out what tax and VAT you need to pay for wine imported into Great Britain (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/import-alcohol-into-the-uk).

Labelling wine imported into England

On 1 January 2024, new labelling rules came into effect for all wine imported into England.

Wine imported into England must show the name and address of a business that:

is based in the UK, Channel Islands or Isle of Man

takes responsibility for marketing the wine

You do not need to use the words ‘importer’ or ‘imported by’.

Wine moving to England from Northern Ireland, Channel Islands and Isle of Man must also meet this requirement.

This wine can be moved to Scotland and Wales for sale, without the need to change the label.

EU wine labelled before 1 January 2024

Wine imported directly into England from the EU does not need to be re-labelled to comply with the current rules if any of the following apply:
- it’s already been labelled in accordance with applicable rules at that time, and is being aged
- it’s already in the supply chain
- it was placed on the market before 1 January 2024
Non-EU wine

All wine imported directly into England from countries outside of the EU must comply with the current labelling rules.

Labelling wine imported into Scotland or Wales

Wine imported directly into Scotland or Wales must show the wine importer’s address, and prefix it with the term ‘importer’ or ‘imported by’.

This wine can be moved to England for sale, without the need to change the label.

Labelling wine moving from England to Northern Ireland

Wine moving from England to Northern Ireland using the Northern Ireland retail movement scheme (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/northern-ireland-retail-movement-scheme-nirms-how-to-move-goods) (to be marketed in Northern Ireland) must show the name and address of a business that is based in the UK, Channel Islands or Isle of Man.

Other wine labelling rules

Wine sold in the UK must also meet other labelling requirements.

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.

AAIB Report: ATR 72-212 A, G-CMJM
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-03)

ATR 72-212 A (G-CMJM), right nosewheel detached on takeoff, on departure from Edinburgh Airport, 31 October 2023

Whilst taking off from Edinburgh Airport the right wheel from the nose leg gear detached from the aircraft. The detachment was not observed by the airfield operations department and the flight crew were unaware of the loss of the wheel. They continued the flight and landed at Belfast City Airport without any abnormal indications or adverse aircraft performance. The wheel was first noticed missing as the aircraft taxied onto stand at Belfast. A failure of the wheel axle caused by bearing overheat was identified as the cause of the wheel detachment. A number of potential contributing factors were identified, but the cause of the bearing overheat could not be positively determined.

Traders using a rolling month or averaging to keep under the 299 parts per month

The 299 parts per month is based on a calendar month.

Goods being removed from customs warehouse in excess of 299 parts per month

Traders may import in excess of 299 parts per month to customs warehousing and attempt to remove in excess of 299 parts per month to Authorised Use relief. Although they may import in excess of 299 per month to customs warehousing, they may still only release 299 parts to Authorised Use relief per month.

Please note that a pair (if necessary) is considered one part, for example a pair of wheels.

Falsifying Country of Origin

CG76881 - Chattels: coins and bank notes
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-08)


TCGA92/S262

Coins and bank notes which are sterling currency are not chargeable assets, see CG11700 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg11700).

Coins and bank notes which are currency of the issuing country are not treated as chattels, TCGA92/S262(6)(b). See CG78300+ (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg78300p) for the treatment of foreign currency.

Only coins and bank notes which are legal tender are currency. Coins and bank notes which aren’t legal tender may qualify for the chattels exemption.

A collection of coins or banknotes is unlikely to be regarded as a set. However, if it contains examples of all the values or denominations issued in one year or during one reign or government, these will, themselves, form a set.
25th anniversary of the Stockholm Declaration on Holocaust Remembrance
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-20)

The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance commemorates 25 years of the Stockholm Declaration and looks ahead to the future of Holocaust remembrance.

On Monday 17 February, the UK presidency of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) welcomed Heads of Delegation from the 35 IHRA Member Countries to London for an event to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Stockholm Declaration on Holocaust Remembrance. We also invited key figures who played an important role in shaping international activity on Holocaust education, remembrance and research over the past 25 years, as well as Holocaust survivors, representatives of the Jewish community and civil society.

The UK government is committed to international co-operation to promote education, remembrance and research about the Holocaust. The UK was one of the founding signatories of the Stockholm Declaration in 2000, through which we pledged that the terrible events of the Holocaust would remain forever seared in our collective memory. This commemoration event provided an important opportunity to reflect on what has been achieved in terms of promoting Holocaust remembrance, and look ahead to the future.

IHRA Chair and UK Special Envoy for Post-Holocaust Issues Lord Pickles reflected on the achievements of the past 25 years. He noted that the pledges made 25 years ago were still as relevant today as they were in 2000. Lord Pickles stressed the importance of safeguarding Holocaust sites, opening up Holocaust-related archives, and the promotion of testimony and Holocaust-related objects. He also drew attention to the dangers caused by ongoing Holocaust distortion, adding that the truth can never harm us.

Former Prime Minister Tony Blair and former US President Bill Clinton both addressed the audience via video message. They reflected on their efforts, alongside former Swedish Prime Minister Göran Persson, to strengthen international co-operation on Holocaust remembrance 25 years ago and to bring together world leaders to sign the Stockholm Declaration and form the IHRA.

Looking ahead to the future, participants emphasised that further collective action was needed to tackle the challenges of Holocaust distortion and the global rise of antisemitism. The role of emerging technologies was also highlighted as an area to explore, given the potential to harness artificial intelligence as a force for good in Holocaust education. All agreed that it was essential to continue to educate about the facts of the Holocaust, to ensure the truth is never forgotten.
