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 Tidal Training 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 Tidal Training 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
- 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.

UK welcomes talks in Istanbul and calls on Kremlin to end the bloodshed: UK statement to the OSCE
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-15)

Ambassador Holland welcomes talks in Istanbul and urges Russia to end the bloodshed in Ukraine and show it is serious about peace or face further sanctions.

Thank you, Mr Chair.

Ukraine has agreed, in-principle, to a full and unconditional ceasefire. Because only when missiles and drones stop, and the deaths of innocent civilians end, can discussions towards a just and lasting peace begin.

Last weekend the UK, the US and our European partners reiterated our call on Russia to agree to a 30-day ceasefire now, as Ukraine has done, and create the space for talks.

Rather than seize this opportunity, Russia continues to stall. Instead of an unconditional ceasefire, they have again moved the goal posts, calling for talks to resolve the conflict’s so-called ‘root causes’. This is code for maximalist demands which would deny Ukraine its sovereignty and territorial integrity and do not meaningfully shift the dial.

We welcome today’s talks and thank Türkiye for agreeing to host them. We call on Russia to engage in good faith in the US-led peace efforts. In keeping with his commitment to ending this war, President Zelenskyy has agreed to direct talks with President Putin, an offer which we now know has been rebuffed. We commend President Zelenskyy for this decision.

Mr Chair, last week we saw another supposed three-day ‘ceasefire’ from Russia. Just like the truce at Easter, this was a smokescreen intended to portray Russia as the party of peace.

In reality, Russia’s death and destruction continued. According to the Ukrainian authorities, there were over 700 Russian violations between midnight and midday last Thursday alone. Aerial bombings killed at least three civilians in Kherson, Zaporizhzhia and Sumy.

And Russia ramped up its attacks in the days after this ‘ceasefire’ just as it did at Easter. At least six civilians have been killed and dozens more injured. Civilian infrastructure has been destroyed in Odesa and elsewhere in Ukraine.

The gulf between the Russian state’s words and its actions could not be wider. But the urgency is real. April was the deadliest month in Ukraine for child casualties since June 2022. Normal lives, homes and families destroyed.

We will not stand by while the Kremlin delays and denies. The UK and our allies are prepared to impose further sanctions if Russia fails to demonstrate that it is serious about peace. And we will continue to support Ukraine for as long as it takes.

Now, more than ever, Russia must heed the world’s call and agree to end the bloodshed.

Government completes legislation for infected blood scheme
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-12)

Completed legislation will widen compensation service to all eligible victims of the Infected Blood Scandal.

New draft laws will be debated and approved by Parliament before becoming law in March

Over £13.4 million already paid out to infected individuals, and £11.8 billion allocated in the Autumn Budget

Today the government will deliver on its commitment to complete its legislation underpinning the Infected Blood Compensation Scheme, which will widen the compensation service to all eligible victims of the Infected Blood Scandal.

This will ensure that parents, partners, children, siblings and some carers of those who contracted illnesses will also be able to apply for compensation, and take another important step towards justice.

Existing legislation underpinning the compensation scheme applied to people who contracted illnesses, as a result of the scandal, rather than those who were indirectly affected.

This first phase of legislation was established in August 2024, just weeks after the General Election. It gave the Infected Blood Compensation Authority the powers to pay compensation to both living and deceased victims who contracted illnesses.

The Government allocated £11.8 billion in the Autumn Budget to compensate victims of the Infected Blood Scandal, with these new laws setting out more detail on how funds will be administered.

The draft laws will be debated and must be approved by both Houses of Parliament to then formally be established as laws, which the Government hopes will happen by the 31st March 2025.

Once this happens, the Infected Blood Compensation Authority will have the required powers to pay compensation to all victims who are eligible under the Infected Blood Compensation Scheme.

The Infected Blood Compensation Authority is an independent organisation set up by the Cabinet Office on recommendation from the Infected Blood Inquiry. It has already started to provide compensation to victims who contracted illnesses, with over £13.4 million paid by mid-January.

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

This Government is determined to deliver justice for the victims of the Infected Blood Scandal and is going further than any other before.

Having met many of the infected blood community, I know the scale of suffering people have endured. These new laws will be vital to delivering compensation to people who did such a huge amount and often suffered so much themselves when caring for their loved ones who contracted life-changing illnesses.

I hope that completing this legislation and allocating over £11 billion in the budget brings a sense of reassurance to the community of how committed this government is to delivering justice.

NIM01572 - Class 1 Structural Overview: zero-rate of secondary NICs for Freeport employees: examples: Example 2 – 60% rule met at start of employment but under 60% in a week, not a substantial change in the earner’s working arrangements, earnings above the FUST
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-29)


Example 2 – 60% rule met at start of employment but under 60% in a week, not a substantial change in the earner’s working arrangements, earnings above the FUST

An employee works for an employer which has business premises in a Freeport tax site.

The employer hires an employee on 1 July 2024 who is paid £5,000 per month gross by the employer (£60,000 a year). At the start of the employment, the employer reasonably expects that the employee will spend 3 days (18 hours, 60% of their working week) at the employer’s business premises in a freeport tax site and 2 days (12 hours, 40% of their working week) visiting clients so the employee meets the 60% rule.

However on one occasion, acting as cover for their manager who one day in a month attends a board meeting at the head office in Manchester, when normally working in the freeport tax site, they attend on their behalf. This reduces their time in the Freeport that week to 40%. This isn’t a substantial change in the earner’s working arrangements so the employer would not be required to stop claiming the relief. Should the employee continue to attend Board meetings to the point where there is an expectation that the employee attends the Board meeting, then the employer can no longer reasonably expect the employee to meet the 60% rule and must stop claiming the relief.

The employee wasn’t employed by the employer or a connected employer in the previous 24 months.

The employer is a qualifying employer and the employee is a qualifying employee, so the employer can claim the relief. However, as the employee’s earnings are much more than the Freeport Upper Secondary Threshold (FUST) of £2,083 per month then the employer will pay secondary National Insurance contributions for this employee on all earnings above the FUST.

Note

This example will also apply where an employee is working in an Investment Zone special tax site.

If some but not all of the personal representatives are not resident in the United Kingdom this may affect their liability to income tax. The rules for mixed residence personal representatives can be found at ITA07/S834.

Mixed residence personal representatives are regarded as not resident for income tax purposes if when the deceased died, the deceased was:

To 5 April 2025

not resident in the UK or

not ordinarily resident in the UK* or

not domiciled in the UK.

From 6 April 2025

not resident in the UK or

not a long-term UK resident within the meaning of IHTA 1984 (IHTM (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm04000#))

If none of the above applies to the deceased, the personal representatives will be treated as wholly resident in the UK for income tax purposes and the normal rules for assessing apply.

Residence for CGT purposes

The above rules apply for income tax purposes only. See CG30621 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg30621) onwards for the rules about the status of personal representatives for capital gains tax purposes.

* For 2013/14 and later tax years not ordinary residence does not need to be considered.

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 Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council 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 Nuneaton & Bedworth Borough Council 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.

Upper Tribunal Administrative Appeals Chamber decision by Judge Ovey on 26 September 2024.

Judicial Summary

The Appellant company held a standard operator’s licence. The single vehicle it operated required substantial repairs and was taken off the road. To save costs, the transport manager resigned. Periods of grace were granted in respect of both the appointment of a transport manager and the provision of evidence of financial standing. The Appellant did not appreciate that the requirement to maintain the required average for financial standing continued to apply and its director took £12,500 out of its current account to invest and obtain interest. It was returned before the end of the period of grace, but not in time to maintain the necessary level. On extending the period of grace in a second warning notice, the Traffic Commissioner gave the Appellant 14 days rather than 21 days to make representations, contrary to the provisions of s.27(3) of the Goods Vehicle (Licensing of Operators) Act 1995. On the facts, the error was immaterial. We applied R. v. Soneji [2005] UKHL 49 and decided that the error did not render the notice invalid.
