This project includes plans for a UK wide national memorial, as well as additional memorials in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.

The Rt Hon Nick Thomas-Symonds, Paymaster General and Minister for the Cabinet Office, said:

I am really pleased that all the members have now been appointed to this important committee.

Each brings different experiences and insight from across the community. I look forward to being updated on their work so that we can deliver a fitting memorial to the injustices faced by the victims of this scandal.

The Chair and Vice Chair of the Infected Blood Memorial Committee, Clive Smith and Joan Edgington, said:

We want to congratulate all those who have been appointed to sit on the Infected Blood steering Committee.

It is our intention that the Committee is representative of all corners of the community, recognising transmission routes, breadth of experiences and geography.

We look forward to working with the new Committee members and the wider community to swiftly progress our incredibly important work.”

The government has made these appointments to the Committee to recognise the different transmission routes and breadth of the experiences of those affected and infected by the Scandal.

The government is also paying compensation to victims of the scandal. As of 6th November, a total of 3,614 people have been asked to start their claim, and of this number 3,371 have started the claim process. So far 2,621 people have received an offer and the total value of offers made is £2,000,183,671.75. This is in addition to over £1.2 billion in interim compensation payments paid out so far.

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 3 Temple Gardens 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;

India-UK Vision 2035
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-24)

The Prime Ministers of India and the UK endorsed the new 'India-UK Vision 2035' during their meeting in London on 24 July 2025.

The Prime Ministers of India and the United Kingdom, during their meeting on 24 July 2025 in London, endorsed the new ‘India-UK Vision 2035’ that reaffirms their shared commitment to unlocking the full potential of a revitalised partnership.

This ambitious and future-focused agreement underscores the 2 nations’ resolve to work together for mutual growth, prosperity and to shape a prosperous, secure, and sustainable world in a time of rapid global change.

Increased ambition: since elevating the relationship to a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership, India and the UK have catalysed significant partnerships and growth across all sectors. The new vision builds on this momentum, setting ambitious goals to deepen and diversify bilateral cooperation.

Strategic vision: by 2035, flagship partnerships will redefine the India-UK relationship delivering transformative opportunities and tangible benefits for both countries. The India-UK Vision 2035 sets clear strategic goals and milestones, tracking a path for sustained future collaboration and innovation.

Comprehensive outcomes: the pillars of the India-UK Vision 2035 are designed to reinforce one another, creating a partnership that is greater than the sum of its parts across a wide and deep range of outcomes including:
- growth and jobs in the UK and India, building on an ambitious trade deal that unlocks markets and opportunities for both countries
- an education and skills partnership to nurture the next generation of global talent, deepening transnational education collaborations between UK and Indian universities, including the establishment of campuses of leading universities in each other’s countries
- develop cutting-edge technology and research, building on the Technology Security Initiative (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/uk-india-technology-security-initiative-factsheet), focused on future telecoms, AI and critical minerals, laying the ground for future collaboration on semi-conductors, quantum, bio-technology and advanced materials
- a transformative climate partnership focussed on accelerating clean energy, mobilising climate finance at scale, and strengthening resilience
- defence and security cooperation, including a common commitment to peace, security and prosperity in the Indo-Pacific and beyond
UK Delegation to the OSCE
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-02)

The UK Delegation to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) seeks to work with and through the OSCE and its 57 participating States to protect the UK's interests, people and values. The OSCE has a uniquely comprehensive approach to security, which covers a broad range of issues across the Euro-Atlantic and Eurasian region, "from Vancouver to Vladivostok".

We work to improve military security by encouraging greater openness, transparency and co-operation. OSCE participating states have developed the world’s most advanced regime of conventional arms control and confidence-building measures. We contribute to the work of the OSCE in addressing conflicts in the OSCE region, including in Ukraine. We also work on countering evolving transnational, non-military threats such as terrorism and organised crime.

We hold participating States to account over their commitments on human rights, fundamental freedoms, democracy and the rule of law, as well as wider corruption and governance issues, and seek to advance those commitments where possible. We support the OSCE’s autonomous institutions, including for example the work of the Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights on election monitoring across the OSCE area. The OSCE also covers a range of economic and environmental issues.

We work to ensure the OSCE’s Secretariat and field operations in the Western Balkans, Central Asia, Eastern Europe and the South Caucasus are effective, efficient and focused in helping participating States meet their OSCE commitments. We also contribute to OSCE field operations’ programmatic activity through extra-budgetary and in-kind contributions.

INTM604200 - Transfer of assets abroad: The Tribunal: Decisions in principle
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-10)


If the Tribunal provides a decision in principle, leaving figures to be agreed between the parties, the case-owner is responsible for securing the taxpayer’s provisional agreement. When agreement has been reached with the taxpayer, a memo containing all details - including the agreed figures - should be sent to the Tribunal Service.

The Tribunal Service will then certify the agreement without a formal hearing. The certification has the effect of formally determining the appeal in the agreed figures. The Clerk to the Tribunal will advise the taxpayer or agent of the appeal determination.

If agreement cannot be obtained, the papers should be referred back to HMRC Legal Group, via the technical specialist in Personal Tax International (see INTM604440 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm604440)), so that HMRC Legal Group can consider listing the appeal for a further hearing.

If Double Taxation Relief is being claimed (INTM602540 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm602540)), it is advisable to deal with the tax consequences at this stage because the tax credit can affect the amount of income to be assessed.

The letter inviting agreement of the figures should not include any detail which might be interpreted as proposing determination of an appeal under TMA70/S54. A suitable form of words for the letter is as follows:

“With reference to the hearing of the appeal on (date), and to the Tribunal’s decision in principle (then given) (issued on (date)), please let me know whether you agree that the income chargeable to income tax under the income charge / benefits charge on the basis of that decision is as follows…

This is not a proposal to settle the appeal under the provisions of TMA70/S54.

Upon receipt of your agreement, the Tribunal will be asked to give its formal order determining the appeal by (reducing/increasing) the charge to…”
Benefit Cap statistics
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-23)

Statistics on households affected by the benefit cap.

These Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) quarterly publications provide statistics on households affected by the benefit cap (https://www.gov.uk/benefit-cap) and include:
- cumulative and point-in-time numbers of households capped
- number of households that were previously capped but have moved off the cap
The Benefit Cap Official Statistics cover the number of households capped under:
- Housing Benefit (HB) from April 2013
- Universal Credit (UC) from October 2016
Changes to Benefit Cap statistics from September 2025

From the September 2025 release, data on capped Housing Benefit (HB) households will only be released via Stat-Xplore. The bulletin will still reference the total number of capped HB households but will not contain any narrative or graphs on HB and the data tables will no longer contain any information on HB. This is due to the number of capped HB customers being very low, as HB is being replaced by Universal Credit for working age customers, so unsuitable for detailed analysis.

Figures relating to households with their UC capped are currently subject to retrospection. Please note that from the September 2025 release we only plan to refresh the previous 2 years statistics and freeze the historical timeseries. This is in line with methodology for UC household statistics due to minimal retrospection after 2 years.

Dr Nicola Crauford, the Office for Nuclear Regulation’s Chair, said: “I’d like to thank the Civil Nuclear Constabulary (CNC) for this fascinating and informative visit. It provided a very useful understanding of the important role the CNC provides in keeping the nuclear sector safe.”

The ONR (https://www.onr.org.uk/about-us/) is the UK’s independent nuclear regulator for safety and security. It regulates nuclear safety, nuclear security and conventional health and safety at the 36 licensed nuclear sites in Great Britain. This includes ensuring the adequacy of security arrangements for dealing with special nuclear material and special nuclear information within the civil nuclear industry as well as the safety and security of the transport of civil nuclear and radioactive materials.

Details

The probable maximum flood (PMF) is the greatest fluvial discharge that is realistically possible under contemporary climatic conditions for a catchment. It is estimated from the probable maximum precipitation (PMP). The PMP is the greatest depth of precipitation for a given duration that is meteorologically possible under contemporary climatic conditions for a catchment at a particular time of year.

The PMF is used to check the safety of the highest risk dams in the UK, where a breach of the dam could put lives in downstream communities at risk. It can also be used for assessing the safety of other very high risk infrastructure.

Most methods and data used to estimate the PMP and PMF have not been updated since the Flood Studies Report was published in 1975. This report describes the first phase of a project that aims to assess the suitability of methods for estimating PMP and PMF, and develop new methods to improve the safety of our highest risk reservoirs. The aim of Phase 1 is to review options for alternative approaches to estimating PMP and PMF. It also provides recommendations for future research developments which will take several years to carry out.

Accompanying the report are:
- a spreadsheet tool that uses the current method for estimating PMF, including calculating snowmelt
- the catalogue of extreme events used in the project

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.

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.
