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 Green Man Environmental Services 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 Green Man Environmental Services 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.
Vaccination of poultry against highly pathogenic avian influenza
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-24)

A joint industry, cross-government report on the potential use of vaccination of poultry as a preventative measure against HPAI in the UK.

The joint industry, cross-government avian influenza vaccination taskforce (https://www.gov.uk/government/groups/bird-flu-avian-influenza-vaccination-task-force) (the Taskforce) was established to explore the UK’s position on avian influenza vaccination and make recommendations for the potential use of vaccination of poultry as a preventative measure against HPAI in the UK. The work of the Taskforce is essential to ensure the UK is aligned with the evolving global position, and has an up-to-date, evidence-based policy on HPAI vaccination.

This report provides a detailed analysis, including consideration of:
- current policy across the UK
- the legislative framework for vaccination and regulatory processes for authorisation
- factors in selecting a vaccine
- relevant trials, surveillance, trade, cost and benefit
Whilst supporting the principles of vaccination, significant uncertainties remain. The Taskforce will therefore drive forward actions including:
- exploring a targeted turkey vaccination trial
- proactive engagement with trading partners
- work to build surveillance and laboratory capacity
The Taskforce will then publish its final recommendation.

Derailment of a passenger train at Shap
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-12)

Investigation into the derailment of a passenger train at Shap, Cumbria, 3 November 2025.

At around 06:10 on 3 November 2025, a passenger train travelling from Glasgow Central to London Euston derailed after striking a landslip around 3 miles (5 km) south of Shap, Cumbria. The train was travelling at around 83 mph (134 km/h) when it struck debris that had been washed onto the track. This lifted the first bogie off the rails and to the right, where it ran derailed for around 560 metres. There were 9 staff and 86 passengers on board the train at the time of the collision.

Four people were treated for minor injuries as a result of the accident, and damage was caused to the train and to railway infrastructure.

The landslip occurred during a period of heavy and sustained rainfall. RAIB’s preliminary examination found that a drainage channel, which runs across the slope above the washed-out material, was unable to accommodate the volume of water which was present. This led to the slope material below becoming saturated, initiating the landslip.

Our investigation will determine the sequence of events which led to the derailment and will include consideration of:
- the design, maintenance and management of earthworks and drainage in this area
- the effectiveness of on-site monitoring equipment
- the operational response to adverse weather warnings
- the performance of the train during the derailment
- any underlying factors which might have contributed to the derailment.
Our investigation is independent of any investigation by the railway industry or by the industry’s regulator, the Office of Rail and Road (http://orr.gov.uk/).

We will publish our findings, including any recommendations to improve safety, at the conclusion of our investigation. This report will be available on our website.

CTM15910 - Distributions: non-qualifying distributions: return
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-29)


CTA10/S1101

A company making a non-qualifying distribution (CTM15450 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm15450)) in any accounting period should also make a return to HMRC under CTA10/S1101 (3) within 14 days of the end of that accounting period. This guidance will continue to use the description 'non-qualifying distribution' as it is well-known, although when tax credits were abolished by FA16 the term was replaced by 'CD distribution' reflecting the paragraphs of CTA10/S1000 (1) which deal with bonus issues of redeemable shares and of securities. See FA16/SCH1/PARA12 amending ITTOIA05/S401.

The return will give:
- particulars of the transaction giving rise to the distribution,
- the names and addresses of the persons receiving the distribution,
- the amount or value of the distribution received by each of them.
Where non-qualifying distributions are made on a date which does not fall within any accounting period the return is due within 14 days of the date on which the distribution is made.

Where there is doubt whether the transaction gives rise to a non-qualifying distribution the company must provide details of the transaction within the time limits given above. HMRC may require further information reasonably required concerning the transaction - CTA10/S1101 (6) and (7).

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.

Provisional revision to neighbourhood policing data, at 31 March 2024
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-19)

A one-off statistical release on provisional revisions to police officer and police community support officer neighbourhood policing data in England and Wales.

This is an ad-hoc statistical release of management information that provides provisional revisions to the police officer and police community support officer neighbourhood policing figures originally published in the ‘Police workforce, England and Wales: 31 March 2024 (https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/police-workforce-england-and-wales-31-march-2024)’ statistics (published on 24 July 2024).

Following concerns raised by police forces about the accuracy of their previously published neighbourhood policing figures, in January 2025 the Home Office asked the National Police Chiefs’ Council (NPCC) to conduct a data validation exercise on the March 2024 figures. Despite the data being confirmed by contacts in each individual police force ahead of publication in July 2024, this exercise uncovered inaccuracies in the figures.

Data in this release, which has been provided to the Home Office as management information by the NPCC, summarises those provisional revisions to March 2024 neighbourhood policing data.

Putting fans first: call for evidence on pricing practices in the live events sector
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-19)

The government is seeking evidence about pricing practices in the live events sector.

This call for evidence aims to seek views about pricing practices in the live events sector and whether the current legal framework provides sufficient protection for consumers.

We encourage all interested stakeholders to respond including:
- fans
- ticketing platforms
- the wider live events sector
This call for evidence has been prepared by the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and the Department for Culture Media and Sport (DCMS).

Putting fans first: consultation

We are simultaneously running a consultation on strengthening consumer protections in relation to ticket resales (https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/putting-fans-first-consultation-on-the-resale-of-live-events-tickets).

We encourage respondents to review both the consultation and the call for evidence in tandem and respond to both.
