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 CTR Secure 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 CTR Secure 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.

This page and chapter are under review as the relevant content is also published in the technical guidance chapters of the Compliance Handbook (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook), within Compliance checks factsheets (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-revenue-and-customs-compliance-checks-factsheets) and in Compliance checks guidance (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/hmrc-compliance-checks-help-and-support). If you use particular pages regularly, please email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know the specific content you find useful.

The agent or adviser may add useful information about the reasons for the inaccurate document, failure, or VAT or Excise wrongdoing.

It is a person’s responsibility for getting their tax affairs right, see technical guidance at CH84540 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch84540). Any discussion about the reason for the inaccuracy, failure or wrongdoing cannot be delegated to an agent to answer, as you may need to ask the person to explain their actions. . Any questions may be addressed to the person via their agent.

In all cases where an inaccuracy has been found you need to gather evidence of how the inaccuracy arose in order to establish if a penalty is payable or not.

If the inaccuracy was the result of the information supplied to the agent, you have the power to require the person to provide any documents that are reasonably needed to establish the penalty position.

If you have evidence that shows the inaccuracy was the result of an agent’s mistake and the person has:
- given the adviser a full and accurate set of facts
- checked the adviser's work or advice to the best of their ability and competence and
- adopts it
Then the person will not normally have acted carelessly, and there is no penalty, unless the person employed an agent who was not competent to act on their behalf.

Where you suspect that a tax agent has engaged in dishonest conduct, see technical guidance starting at CH180000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch180000) and operational guidance starting at CH880000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch880000).

Source: gov.uk (2025-08-18)


Companies may form partnerships with other legal persons including individuals, other companies and trustees. For tax purposes, a ‘company partnership’ is a partnership in which at least one member is a company.

Each company member liable to UK CT is required to include in its CTSA return the share of profits it derives from the partnership.

In partnership return context the term ‘CT partnership’ is used to describe a partnership all of whose members are within the charge to CT.

Hot spot policing in England and Wales, year ending March 2023
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-27)

This report evaluates the impact of government-funded hot spot policing in 20 police forces in England and Wales in the year ending March 2023.

This report evaluates the impact of government-funded hot spot policing in 20 police forces in England and Wales in the year ending March 2023. Unlike in the previous year, when the programme reduced violence and robbery offences in the hot spots, this report does not find a statistically significant impact on crime for the year ending March 2023. However, the analysis does show that the programme improved the number and rate of positive crime outcomes within hot spots in both years. This means that more crimes were solved in the hot spots and more weapons and drugs were found as a result of the programme. The report also discusses possible reasons for these effects.

UN Human Rights Council 59: UK Statement for the Special Rapporteur on Burundi
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-27)

UK Statement for the Interactive Dialogue with the Special Rapporteur on Burundi. Delivered by the UK's Human Rights Ambassador, Eleanor Sanders.

Thank you, Mr. President.

We thank the Special Rapporteur for his timely update and again recognise the ongoing importance of his mandate. We reiterate our call on Burundi to grant him full access to the country.

Mr President, the UK welcomes the peaceful conduct of Burundi’s recent legislative elections, as reported by the African Union observer mission.

However, we are concerned by reports of serious irregularities, including voter intimidation, duplicate and fraudulent registrations and the early opening of polling stations without the presence of officials. Opposition parties must be allowed to engage meaningfully in democratic processes.

We call on the government of Burundi to address these issues transparently, to enable the people of Burundi to fully exercise their civil and political rights.

We also remain deeply concerned by ongoing restrictions on human rights defenders and journalists. We urge Burundi to take further steps to protect civic space, and to ensure inclusive governance and political pluralism.

Special Rapporteur,

How can the international community best support Burundi in strengthening its existing democratic processes?

Samantha Seaton appointed Co-chair of Smart Data Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-24)

The government has appointed Samantha Seaton as the new Co-chair of the Smart Data Council

Former Moneyhub CEO Samantha Seaton will work alongside Minister Liz Lloyd to boost Smart Data Council

Appointment supports the Council to accelerate development of Smart Data schemes aimed at driving growth

Builds on Open Banking success where 82 firms have raised over £2 billion and created 4,800 jobs

The government has appointed Samantha Seaton as the new Co-chair of the Smart Data Council. The former Moneyhub CEO will work alongside Minister Liz Lloyd to drive forward the UK’s smart data agenda and unlock its potential for economic growth.

This appointment means the Council is ready to help deliver the £36m commitments to Smart Data set out in the Industrial Strategy. More detail on these will be set out in the forthcoming Smart Data Strategy that will position the UK as a global leader in data-driven innovation.

Smart Data has demonstrated significant potential to increase UK GDP through greater productivity and competition benefits enabled by personal data mobility. This has been proven through the success of Open Banking, where 82 firms alone have raised over £2 billion of private funding since 2018 and created 4,800 jobs.

Business Minister Liz Lloyd said:

“Samantha brings exceptional expertise and vision to this vital role, her proven track record in scaling data-driven businesses and deep understanding of the regulatory landscape makes her the ideal partner to help unlock Smart Data’s potential for economic growth and consumer benefit.

“As part of our Plan for Change, we want to make the UK a global centre of innovation and the work of the Council is central to that to boost our priority sectors and drive economic growth right across the nation.”

Samantha Seaton, new Co-chair of the Smart Data Council, said:

“For me, innovation has and always will be about solving real problems for real people. Smart Data can make people’s lives easier and more informed. It helps businesses deliver truly personalised, customer-centric services and drives innovation across our communities. Data is like electricity - it’s invisible until it powers something extraordinary. Let’s make extraordinary accessible to everyone.”

Seaton brings extensive experience from her role as CEO of Moneyhub, where she secured over £70 million of funding and pioneered AI-driven data categorisation. She currently serves as CEO of CAPAdata, where she continues to reshape how industries understand workplace pension value and performance through intelligent data application.

The Smart Data Council will play a crucial role in supporting the development of schemes that provide benefits across health, energy, sustainability and consumer services. By 2035, the government’s ambition is to create a world-leading innovation environment that attracts continued investment in Smart Data, establishing the UK as a global hub for trusted, high-impact data-driven growth.
