The UK calls on all parties to agree an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in DRC: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-16)

Statement by Ambassador James Kariuki, UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

President, this month we commemorate 31 years since the genocide against the Tutsi.

During this time, we honour the memory of those who lost their lives, and recognise the remarkable resilience shown by the people of Rwanda.

I will make three points.

First, the United Kingdom remains deeply concerned at the situation in eastern DRC.

We regret that despite the unanimous adoption by this Council of resolution 2773 almost two months ago, it remains far from being implemented.

While the withdrawal of M23 and Rwandan Defence Forces from Walikale is a positive step, much more needs to be done.

We reiterate this Council’s call for the M23 to cease hostilities and withdraw from all controlled areas, and for the Rwandan Defence Forces to cease support for the M23 and withdraw from Congolese territory.

We call on the parties, in line with resolution 2773, to agree an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, and to seriously engage with regional peace processes.

Second, the United Kingdom welcomes regional leadership towards a durable resolution of the conflict.

We welcome the nomination of President Gnassingbé of Togo as the African Union’s mediator for the peace process for eastern DRC.

We hope this will support coordination between regional and international efforts to deliver peace.

And we urge the parties to engage with his efforts and urgently implement the EAC-SADC roadmap to attain sustainable peace and security.

Third, the United Kingdom is deeply concerned by the scale of human suffering from the conflict in eastern DRC, as set out by our briefers, and its impact on the region.

More than one million people have been displaced since the start of the year.

We repeat our calls for all parties to respect international humanitarian and human rights law and to allow safe and unimpeded passage of humanitarian assistance by lake, road and through the reopening of key airports including Goma and Kavumu.

We also support greater UN and donor co-ordination to ensure assistance reaches those most in need.

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

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

Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

Russia alone is prolonging the war in Ukraine: UK statement to the OSCE
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-30)

Ambassador Holland refutes claims that the UK seeks to prolong the war in Ukraine, emphasising the UK’s commitment to a just and lasting peace. Russia alone is responsible for continuing its war.

Thank you, Madam Chair.

I would like to address the suggestion that the UK is somehow invested in prolonging the war against Ukraine. This assertion is simply untrue, and I believe it is important to set the record straight.

Let me be clear: the UK wants this war to end. This has been a devastating three and a half years, marked by death and destruction on a scale not witnessed in Europe since the Second World War. After consistently calling for an end to this war in this room every week, it should not be necessary to repeat this message. Yet I will: the UK wants this war to end, and without delay. However, I have also consistently stressed that the way in which it ends is of critical importance to all of us. We do not require a history lesson to understand why.

Ukraine’s security is Europe’s security. That is why the UK continues to stand firmly with Ukraine, now and for the long term. It is a commitment to defending international law. It is support for the rights of a sovereign nation under attack. And it is an insistence on a peace that is just and lasting, not just convenient.

Last Friday, the Coalition of the Willing met in London. They welcomed President Zelenskyy’s support for a full, unconditional ceasefire. In contrast, they noted that President Putin had rejected such a ceasefire. The Coalition fully supported President Trump’s comments that the current line of contact must serve as the starting point for any negotiations. They reiterated their unwavering support for Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, and for the fundamental principle that borders must not be changed by force.

Madam Chair, President Zelensky has repeatedly made clear his readiness for a ceasefire, and for serious peace negotiations. In contrast, President Putin has chosen escalation by launching attacks that have killed children, destroyed hospitals, and, more recently, damaged vital civilian energy infrastructure, inflicting suffering upon Ukraine as winter approaches.

There is one party actively seeking to prolong the war in Ukraine. Russia started this conflict, and it holds the power to end it.

Thank you.

Judicial Summary

The Appellant made a claim for injury benefit under the Armed Forces Compensation Scheme (AFCS) Order 2011. His relevant conditions were originally assessed at Level 13 and so there was no entitlement to a Guaranteed Income Payment (GIP). Later, following an Article 59 review, his relevant conditions were re-assessed at Level 11, and so GIP became payable. However, Veterans UK decided that GIP was payable only from the end of the Appellant’s (reserve) service as per Article 16(10) and GE v Secretary of State for Defence [2024] UKUT 92 (AAC). The Appellant argued that GE v SSD should be distinguished and Article 64(6) enabled payment of the GIP to commence before the end of his service. The FTT dismissed the Appellant’s appeal, ruling it was bound by GE v SSD (which concerned an Article 64(2)(b) case, not an Article 64(6) case). The Upper Tribunal refused the Appellant’s further appeal.

If two (or more) companies have a joint interest in a ship, they will each be regarded as operating that ship for tonnage tax purposes. But HMRC would not seek the full tonnage tax profit from each company. The tonnage tax profit attributable to the ship is shared between them in proportion to their interests in the ship. See the example below.(This treatment does not apply where two or more companies are regarded as operating the same ship because they have different interests in it, see TTM01320 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/tonnage-tax-manual/ttm01320).)

Example

Companies A, B, C are the joint owners of a ship for the whole of the year ended 31 December 2013. A owns 16/64 of the ship, B owns 24/64, and C owns 24/64. The net registered tonnage of the ship is 17,371 tons.

The ship’s tonnage tax profit for the 12 month accounting period ended 31 December 2013 is £ 24966 (see the example in TTM01300 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/tonnage-tax-manual/ttm01300)). The share of profit to be included in the tonnage tax profits of each of the joint owners is:

Company A: £ 6242 (16/64 x £ 24966)Company B: £ 9362 (24/64 x £ 24966)Company C: £ 9362 (24/64 x £ 24966)

IEIM402186 - Reportable Information: Joint accounts
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-14)


Reportable Information: Joint accounts

For reporting for the calendar year 2026 onwards, Financial Institutions are required to identify whether Reportable Accounts are joint accounts. Where a Reportable Account is a joint account, it must be reported as such, together with the number of joint account holders.

Where the number of joint account holders changes during the reportable year, the number to be reported is the number of joint account holders at 31 December of the reportable year (or if different, the date at which the account value is calculated, see IEIM402120 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim402120)).

Where a joint account closes in the reporting period, the number of joint account holders to be reported is the number at the date of closure.

When a new joint account holder is added to a pre-existing account, New Account due diligence must be carried out on the new joint account holder.

Since joint account holders are reported individually, the ‘New’ or ‘Preexisting’ data element should be completed to reflect the due diligence carried out on the joint account holder.

Universal Periodic Review 49: UK Statement on Türkiye
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-06)

UK Statement on Türkiye, delivered at Türkiye's Universal Periodic Review at the Human Rights Council in Geneva.

Thank you, Mr Vice President,

We recognise efforts by Türkiye to address human rights concerns. The UK urges Türkiye to take further action to uphold freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and media freedom, in accordance with its international human rights obligations.

We recommend Türkiye:

Strengthens judicial independence by amending constitutional provisions for appointing members of the Council of Judges and Prosecutors, ensuring peer election and preventing executive interference.

Protects workers’ rights by enhancing legal frameworks for trade unions, prevents harassment and intimidation, and guarantees the right to union activities without reprisals.

Eliminates restrictions on the right to freedom of expression, ensuring no undue interference and allows independent media to operate freely, without fear of censorship.

Thank you.

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 Walgrave Parish 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 Walgrave Parish 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:

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.

CG65113 - Private residence relief: example: sale of dwelling-house: land exceeds permitted area
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-17)


This example illustrates the apportionments which are required when a dwelling-house is sold with garden or grounds which exceed the permitted area (see CG64800 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg64800p)+).

C owned a dwelling-house, which has always been his only or main residence, together with 5 hectares of land which has always been the garden or grounds of that residence. The property cost £250,000 in May 2011 and he sold it for £500,000 in March 2021.

The First-tier Tribunal determined that the permitted area in March 2021 was two hectares. The Valuation Office Agency has agreed the following apportionments:-

The gain on the dwelling-house and permitted area is wholly relieved so no computation is needed. The gain on the remaining land is computed as follows.
