The UK supports UNSMIL’s call for a full investigation into mass graves of migrants: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-19)

Statement by Ambassador Barbara Woodward, UK Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on Libya.

I thank USG DiCarlo for her briefing this morning.

I also welcome the recent appointment of Hanna Tetteh as the Secretary-General’s Special Representative in Libya.

We look forward to working with her to harness the momentum of UNSMIL’s new political initiative.

I echo the USG’s thanks to DSRSG Koury for her leadership over the past nine months.

I would like to make three points.

First, we welcome the establishment of the Advisory Committee as an important first step in UNSMIL’s political track.

With the Committee’s expertise, and under SRSG Tetteh’s leadership, this initiative has the potential to chart a positive path towards a more stable and representative Libya.

Second, the status quo in Libya remains fragile.

Increasing competition between Libyan actors over state resources has led to unprecedented levels of pressure being exerted on Libya’s economic institutions, threatening Libya’s peace, stability and security.

To that end, we welcome the adoption last month of a new designation criteria for the UN sanctions regime on Libya to hold those who exploit Libyan crude oil and petroleum accountable and help to safeguard Libyan resources.

Third, we are appalled by the recent discovery of multiple mass graves of migrants.

The Panel of Experts’ final report showed that trafficking networks in Libya are expanding.

The UK supports UNSMIL’s call for a full investigation into these discoveries.

We encourage Libyan leaders to engage with the UN and the humanitarian community to end impunity for those who trade in human suffering, and ensure all migrants and refugees are treated in accordance with international human rights law.

The UK has recently provided $5.6 million to the refugee response in Libya.

President, until a unifying political agreement is achieved in Libya, it will be impossible to unlock its great potential.

The UK urges Libya’s leaders to engage seriously with SRSG Tetteh and UNSMIL’s political process, in the interests of all Libyans.
Government Statistical Service Harmonisation: Assessing user needs for additional response options for the new ethnicity harmonisation standard
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-28)

At the Government Statistical Service we want your response to this consultation to provide evidence of user need, including community and respondent need, for additional tick boxes within the new ethnicity harmonised standard.

This consultation asks your views on whether additional tick-box response options are required for a new ethnicity harmonised standard. It is part of the Government Statistical Service (GSS) Harmonisation team’s ongoing review of this standard. It is taking place alongside the ONS’s consultation on topics for Census 2031, which asks about user needs for ethnic group data alongside many other topics.

The new ethnicity harmonised standard will be recommended for use by data collectors across the GSS, including teams working on the next censuses in the UK. We expect the UK statistics organisations to consider this standard when developing questions. We expect the relevant census question to align to this standard in England and Wales. We will continue to work closely with teams across the UK to understand their requirements for the standard. Depending on the user needs of each UK nation, this may be delivered through a single version or a suite of harmonised questions.

The Prime Minister spoke to the Amir of Qatar His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani this afternoon.

The Prime Minister spoke to the Amir of Qatar His Highness Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani this afternoon.

The leaders began by discussing the appalling humanitarian situation in Gaza and the Prime Minister underlined the urgent need for a ceasefire, the unconditional release of all hostages, and an immediate influx of aid into Gaza. The Prime Minister thanked His Highness for Qatar’s tireless work on ceasefire negotiations and reiterated the UK’s support.

The leaders agreed there must be no role for Hamas in the future governance of Gaza and the Prime Minister set out his work so far with allies on a concrete plan to secure lasting peace in the region as part of a two-state solution.

They agreed to continue to work closely together on this going forward, and that they would stay in touch.

Joint Statement: Business Secretary and Fujitsu Services Ltd

Joint Statement by UK Business and Trade Secretary Jonathan Reynolds and Paul Patterson, Director, Fujitsu Services Ltd, on Horizon redress

Business and Trade Secretary Jonathan Reynolds today (Friday 7 March) met chiefs for Fujitsu in Tokyo to begin talks over the cost of redress for victims of the Horizon Scandal.

As part of a two-day visit to Japan, the Business Secretary met the company’s Chief Executive Takahito Tokita and Paul Patterson, Director of Fujitsu Services Ltd, and welcomed their commitments on compensation.

The meeting comes as new statistics published today show £768 million has been paid to over 5,100 claimants across all redress schemes, representing a more than tripling of the total amount of redress paid to victims by government since the end of June 2024.

Speaking after the meeting, Business and Trade Secretary Jonathan Reynolds said:

Today’s meeting with Fujitsu in Tokyo was productive and encouraging. I welcome their agreement to begin talks on compensation ahead of the Williams inquiry’s conclusion, and that they join the UK Government in our commitment to tackling this grave injustice.

We must never forget the lives ruined by the Horizon scandal and no amount of redress can take away that pain. But justice can and must be done. This government is determined to hold those responsible to account, and will continue to make rapid progress on compensation and redress.

Since we took office, we have more than tripled the total amount of redress paid to victims, and today we took another significant step towards justice.

Joint Statement by UK Business and Trade Secretary Jonathan Reynolds and Paul Patterson (Director, Fujitsu Services Ltd):

The Rt. Hon. Jonathan Reynolds MP (UK Secretary of State, Business and Trade), Takahito Tokita (CEO, Fujitsu Limited) and Paul Patterson (Director, Fujitsu Services Limited) held a positive and constructive meeting in Japan today.

The UK Government welcomes Fujitsu’s repeated commitment to its moral obligation to contribute to the Government’s compensation for the victims of the Post Office scandal. Ahead of the completion of Sir Wyn Williams’ Horizon IT Inquiry, the Secretary of State and Mr Patterson agreed to progress discussions regarding Fujitsu’s contribution, acknowledging many parties are involved.

Officials from the Department for Business and Trade will continue to engage with Fujitsu representatives in full. The UK Government will not make a running commentary on these discussions but welcomes them and is grateful for Fujitsu’s engagement with Sir Wyn Williams’ Inquiry and its continued focus on delivering its public services commitments in the UK.

DCMS Sectors Economic Estimates Methodology
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-21)

The Economic Estimates series include Official and Accredited Official Statistics published by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS).

About

These documents set out the definitions used in the DCMS Sectors Economic Estimates (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/dcms-sectors-economic-estimates). Detailed methodological information for DCMS Sector Economic Estimates is available in the technical reports published alongside each statistical release.

The Economic Estimates series include official and accredited official statistics published by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These Economic Estimates are used to provide an estimate of the contribution of DCMS sectors to the UK economy, measured by gross value added (GVA), productivity, employment, earnings, imports and exports of services and goods, number of businesses, and R&D expenditure.

These statistics cover the contributions of the following DCMS sectors to the UK economy:
- Civil Society
- Creative Industries
- Cultural Sector
- Gambling
- Sport
- Tourism
We also publish Economic Estimates for the audio visual sector, computer games subsector and arts and antiques market.

A list of Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes in each DCMS sector and subsector is published here and is also available in all Economic Estimates data tables. More detailed information about sector definitions, along with details of methods and data limitations, is available in the associated technical report published alongside each statistical release.

Unlike other Economic Estimates which are defined using SIC codes and focus on whether the industry doing business is part of a DCMS sector, trade in goods estimates are defined using 8-digit Combined Nomenclature (CN) commodity codes and focus is on whether the good, or commodity, is a DCMS sector ‘good’. A list of 8-digit CN codes in each DCMS sector is published on this page.

Our statistical practice is regulated by the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR). OSR sets the standards of trustworthiness, quality and value in the Code of Practice for Statistics that all producers of official statistics should adhere to.

You are welcome to contact us directly with any comments about how we meet these standards by emailing xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx). Alternatively, you can contact OSR by emailing xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) or via the OSR website (https://osr.statisticsauthority.gov.uk/).
MP v The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions (PIP): [2025] UKUT 240 (AAC)
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-02)

Upper Tribunal Administrative Appeals Chamber decision by Judge Wright on 18 July 2025.

Read the full decision in UA-xx-xxxx-xxxx-PIP (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/68b6b9e4b0a373a01819fd12/UA-xx-xxxx-xxxx-PIP.pdf).

Judicial Summary

This decision is mainly about one issue: whether the ability to move around, or carry items in, a kitchen is relevant under Personal Independence Payment (PIP) daily living activity 1 (preparing food). It decides that moving around or carrying is not relevant to daily living activity 1. This is because the statutory acts of ‘preparing a simple meal’ or ‘cooking a simple meal’ are not connected and because ‘making food ready for cooking’ does not include carrying the (prepared) food to the place where it is to be cooked at or above waist height. It also decides that dentures may in principle constitute an aid for the purposes of PIP daily living activity 2 (taking nutrition), though the First-tier Tribunal’s (FTT’s) failure to investigate this issue was not a material error of law.

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 Interflon UK 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 Interflon UK 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

Approved driving instructors: appeal a registration decision
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-31)

How to appeal to an independent tribunal if you disagree with a decision about your trainee licence or registration as a driving instructor.

What you can appeal against

You can appeal to the tribunal if the Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) Registrar:
- refuses to give you a trainee licence
- removes your trainee licence
- refuses to extend your trainee licence
- refuses to enter or keep your name on the register
- removes your name from the register
Your case will be dealt with by a tribunal in the General Regulatory Chamber.

The tribunal is independent of the government, and will listen to both sides of the argument before it reaches a decision.

If you or your representative is outside the UK and wants to give live video or audio evidence, contact the tribunal (https://www.gov.uk/find-court-tribunal) to request it. Tell the tribunal what country you or the representative is in and what type of evidence is being given. You must do this as soon as possible.

Time limits for appealing

You have a limited time to appeal after the ADI Registrar sends you their decision:
- trainee instructors: 14 days
- approved driving instructors: 28 days
How to appeal

Complete the relevant General Regulatory Chamber (First-tier Tribunal) form (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/general-regulatory-chamber-first-tier-tribunal-forms).

Clearly say why you want to appeal against the decision.

Include any supporting documents, like the ADI Registrar’s decision.
