Deadline extended: Call for evidence - An inspection of refusals and cancellations of permission to enter the UK
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-14)

The ICIBI invites anyone with knowledge or first-hand experience of refusals and cancellations of permission to enter the UK to submit evidence to contribute to this inspection. Deadline extended to close of play 9 September 2025.

The Independent Chief Inspector of Borders and Immigration (ICIBI) has begun an inspection of refusals and cancellations of permission to enter the UK.

As Independent Chief Inspector, I am inviting anyone with knowledge or first-hand experience of refusals and cancellations of permission to enter the UK to submit evidence to inform this inspection. I would be pleased to hear about both what is working well and what could be improved in the following areas:

the role of Border Force officers in refusing and cancelling permission to enter the UK at airports, seaports and juxtaposed controls

the efficiency, effectiveness and consistency of current practice

the impact of carrier checks for organisations and passengers

the impact of digitisation of the border on the ability of Border Force officers to identify individuals whose permission to enter the UK should be refused or cancelled

These areas of interest are not exhaustive, and I welcome submissions that touch on other points. Information received in response to this call for evidence will play an important part in defining the precise scope and focus of the inspection.

This call for evidence will remain open until 9 September 2025.

The information you submit may be quoted in the final inspection report, but it is the ICIBI’s practice not to name sources and to anonymise as much as possible any examples or case studies.

Please click here (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to email your submission to the Independent Chief Inspector.

Please note: The ICIBI’s statutory remit (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2007/30/crossheading/border-and-immigration-inspectorate) does not extend to investigating or making decisions about individual cases or applications for asylum. This remains a Home Office responsibility. The Chief Inspector is interested in hearing from people with lived experience of refusals and cancellations of permission to enter the UK, to the extent that they illustrate or point to systemic problems.

Data Protection

Information on how we process personal data submitted in response to a call for evidence can be found in the ICIBI privacy information notice (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/icibi-privacy-information-notice/icibi-privacy-information-notice#calls-for-evidence) available on the ICIBI website.

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.

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

- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;

CIRD30540 - Intangible assets: notes on accounting practice: amortisation
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-29)


FRS 102

General

FRS102 s18 and s19 require goodwill and intangible assets to be amortised on a systematic basis over their useful life. The amortisation method should reflect the expected pattern in which the asset's future economic benefits are expected to be consumed. If the pattern cannot be determined reliably, the straight-line method should be used.

Useful life

All intangible assets (including goodwill) are considered to have a finite useful life. If it is not possible to make a reliable estimate, the useful life should be restricted to a maximum of 10 years.

In the case of an intangible asset other than goodwill, the useful life cannot exceed the period of any contractual or legal rights.

Review of useful life

The useful life of goodwill and intangible assets should be reviewed when there are indicators that it may have changed. If the useful life is changed, the carrying value of the asset at the date of the change should not be amended. Instead, the carrying value should be amortised over the revised remaining useful life.

IAS38/IFRS3

The principle differences between IAS38/IFRS3 and FRS102 s18 and s19 which may have an impact for Part 8 purposes are as follows:

Under IFRS
- Systematic amortisation of goodwill is not permitted. Instead, goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment.
- Intangible assets other than goodwill can have an indefinite or a finite useful life. For intangible assets with a finite useful life, an estimate of the useful life must be made (there is no presumed maximum of 10 years in cases where a reliable estimate cannot be made).
- Intangible assets with finite useful lives are subject to systematic amortisation on the same basis as required by FRS102 s18. Where intangible assets are regarded as having an indefinite life, no amortisation is charged. Instead, such assets are reviewed annually for impairment.
FRS105 s13 and s14

There are no significant differences between FRS105 s13 and s14 and FRS102 s18 and s19 which have been identified as having an impact for Part 8 purposes.

FRS10

The principle differences between FRS10 and FRS102 s18 and s19 which may have an impact for Part 8 purposes are as follows:

Under FRS10
- There is a rebuttable presumption that the useful life will not exceed 20 years. However, in cases where rebuttal is appropriate, both goodwill and intangible assets can be regarded as having an indefinite useful life. There is no presumed maximum of 10 years in cases where a reliable estimate cannot be made.
- Goodwill and intangible assets with finite useful lives are subject to systematic amortisation on the same basis as required by FRS102 s18 and s19. Where such assets are regarded as having an indefinite life, no amortisation is charged. Instead, annual impairment reviews are carried out.

RFIG31000 - Residence for tax years before 2013-14: particular occupations: students
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-04)


This chapter only applies to tax years up to and including 2012-2013. From 6 April 2013 the Statutory Residence Test (SRT) applies. For guidance on the SRT please see RFIG20000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/residence-and-fig-regime-manual/rfig20000) onwards.

If an individual’s home has been abroad and they have come to the UK for less than two years for a period of study or education, they might not be resident in the UK (see RFIG30300 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/residence-and-fig-regime-manual/rfig30300) coming to the UK and HMRC6 paragraphs 7.4 and 7.5). If the individual has come to the UK for more than two years but less than four years for study or education, they will be resident in the UK while they are here.

But an individual will not usually be ordinarily resident if:
- they do not own or buy accommodation here
- they do not acquire accommodation here on a lease of three years or more
- when they leave the UK they do not plan to return here regularly for visits which average 91 days or more in a tax year
If, while studying in the UK, an individual gets a job to help support themselves, they might have to pay UK tax on their earnings. This is because the earnings are from a UK source and are liable to UK tax whether or not they are resident in the UK. How much tax they have to pay will depend on the amount they earn during the tax year. The individual may be entitled to UK personal tax allowances (see RFIG30500 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/residence-and-fig-regime-manual/rfig30500) onwards) which would reduce the amount of any UK tax they have to pay.

The UK has entered into Double Taxation Agreements with many countries that provide special rules for students who come to the UK to study, or go from the UK to study abroad. Under these rules certain income is not taxable in the country of study if it is only for the maintenance and education of the student.

This page includes 2022 to 2023 annual review summaries of Conflict, Stability and Security Fund programmes in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.

All Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF) programmes are reviewed carefully each year. These reviews assess:

technical and programme management standards including financial and risk management, value for money, conflict and gender sensitivity

contextual factors such as changes to the political environment

the outputs and outcomes during the year

Lessons learned are also identified.

An expert team conducts these reviews and include at least one team member who is independent from the programme. The team assesses at 2 levels: output (the direct result of programme activities) and outcome (the changes that these outputs deliver). Assessment scores are on a scale of 4, where outputs or outcomes meet or exceed expectations, to 1, where most targets were not met.

The CSSF team aims to publish information for all programmes. However, because some of the CSSF’s work is very sensitive, we cannot publish details of all programmes. The 2 main reasons for this are:

to protect national security

for the safety and security of beneficiaries, partners and partner governments

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 Securitay Limited 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 Securitay Limited 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
- 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.

South Western Railway services transferred to public ownership
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-24)

South Western Railway services are now managed by DfT Operator Ltd (DFTO).

From today (25 May 2025), the operation of all South Western Railway services has transferred into public ownership and is being managed by DfT Operator Ltd (DFTO).

The transfer does not impact planned journeys, tickets or timetables and all current tickets remain valid.

DFTO is the government’s public sector owning group that will manage all train companies as they move into public ownership ahead of the creation of Great British Railways (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/great-british-railways) (GBR).

Publicly owned operators under DFTO are now responsible for over 25% of the network - with more than 455 million passenger miles, over 6,000 services running each day and almost 24,000 colleagues.

The government’s vision is to provide a railway that works better for both passengers and taxpayers across Great Britain. DFTO’s purpose is to help deliver on this by unifying and integrating train operations under common public ownership.

See this Department for Transport press release for more information (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/new-dawn-for-rail-as-south-western-services-return-to-public-hands).
