Feasibility of a Potential Emergent Octopus fishery {MMO1440}
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-16)

This project seeks to investigate the potential viability of a targeted octopus fishery in southwest England and explore potential management measures associated with any such fishery.

This project examined the potential feasibility of a targeted octopus fishery in southwest England based on stakeholder observations of generally increasing abundance of octopus and subsequent increase in bycatches. The project investigated trends in octopus abundance spatially and temporally, as well as exploring opportunities and threats emerging from the increased octopus numbers, ethical concerns around a fishery and supply chain feasibility and potential for growth. Two case studies were also reviewed to inform potential monitoring and management needs.

This project was completed prior to recognising an octopus bloom in the southwest in March 2025.
Government-branded merchandise and away days banned
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-06)

Spending taxpayer money on unnecessary branded merchandise and staff ‘away days’ will be banned in the latest crackdown on wasteful spending across departments

- Government doing away with costly away days and pricy merchandise
- Every pound of taxpayer money targeted on securing Britain’s future through the Plan for Change, delivering security for working people and renewal for our country
- Part of crackdown on wasteful spending in government in favour of a more productive and agile state
Spending taxpayer money on unnecessary branded merchandise and staff ‘away days’ will be banned in the latest crackdown on wasteful spending across departments.

Staff training and development are key to boosting productivity, but officials will now be instructed to hold training and team-building exercises and ‘away days’ in government buildings that are available for free, instead of hiring external venues.

Thousands of pounds have also been spent in recent years on goods branded with department logos or slogans—including mugs, jumpers, water bottles, and even fidget cubes.

Such spending will be banned, focusing funding where it matters to working people such as rebuilding the NHS and strengthening our borders.

Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, Pat McFadden MP, said:

By cutting wasteful spending we can target resources at frontline public services with more teachers, extra hospital appointments and police back on the beat.

We will use taxpayers’ money to deliver our Plan for Change, kick-starting economic growth, rebuilding the NHS and strengthening our borders.

The Cabinet Office has set out requirements for all departments to review their policies on procuring corporate-branded and non-essential merchandise, with a view to restricting future purchases.

These stricter rules will permit government merchandise only when essential for delivering the government’s agenda, for example, in overseas trade and diplomacy, to promote growth.

Further measures will require departments to ensure that external venues for away days are only used when space in government buildings is unavailable.

This announcement builds on plans to significantly reduce the approximately 20,000 government credit cards in circulation. Last week, all departments and their public bodies were instructed to freeze their cards, with cardholders required to reapply under tighter new guidelines.

Currency hedging analysis for the UK Space Agency
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-24)

GAD supported UKSA with analysis of currency exchange data to help UKSA protect public funds by managing its euro payments to the European Space Agency.

We helped the UK Space Agency (UKSA) with its understanding of financial risk – helping protect public funds while enabling the UK’s space ambitions.

The Government Actuary’s Department (GAD) undertook an analysis to help the UKSA understand the impact of currency values on payments it has to make in euros. This analysis was used to inform UKSA’s exposure to risk of currency fluctuations, and how it can manage those risks.

Hedging strategies

UKSA invests and makes regular payments in euros to the European Space Agency (ESA). Meanwhile, funding for the UKSA from its sponsor department the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology is in pounds sterling.

We used historical currency exchange rate data to help illustrate risks when needing to make payments in another currency. We considered the impact that different currency hedging strategies can have, by locking in exchange rates in advance, as a tool to manage risk.

Support policy decisions

The government is used to transacting in overseas currencies and our analysis will be used to support policy decisions in how UKSA makes payments to the ESA.

Investment Consultant Timea Varga said: “This analysis was a great example of applying actuarial techniques to help understanding of financial risks. My background is in investment management; I was proud to be able to apply that experience to help inform policy and drive value for the public sector.”

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.

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 Ant Marketing 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;

Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Ant Marketing 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:

Changes to Alcohol Duty rates
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-18)

This measure increases duty rates under the revised structure on all alcoholic products produced in, or imported into, the UK in line with the Retail Price Index (RPI) and also increases the duty differential previously announced for Draught Relief from 1 August 2023.

Changes to Alcohol Duty from 1 August 2023

The way you calculate Alcohol Duty will change on 1 August 2023.

Also, 2 new reliefs will be introduced for:
- small producers
- products sold on draught
Find out about the new rates and reliefs for Alcohol Duty (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/alcohol-duty).

This measure increases:
- duty rates by RPI across all categories in line with the government’s commitment to manage the UK’s finances responsibly
- the value of Draught Relief from 5% to 9.2% for qualifying beer and cider and from 20% to 23% for qualifying wine, other fermented products (previously made wine) and spirits
This aims to support the hospitality industry by ensuring the duty on an average pint does not increase from 1 August 2023.

AAIB investigation to Boeing 737-8K5, G-TAWB
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-25)

A member of Cabin Crew fell from steps whilst closing the aircraft door for departure, East Midlands Airport, 16 December 2024

As the aircraft front passenger door was being closed by the Senior Cabin Crew Member (SCCM), the steps were pushed away from the aircraft. The SCCM was unable to stop herself from falling into the gap created between the steps and the aircraft. She fell onto the ramp and was seriously injured.

The step removal occurred despite the aircraft door being open and a dispatcher still at the top of the steps. There were multiple dispatchers and ramp staff working around the steps and it was not clear who had responsibility for checking that the aircraft door was closed and steps were clear. The presence of one of these dispatchers at the bottom of the steps, with another stepping off the bottom meant the ramp staff moving the steps assumed that the door closure was complete. The process of door closure and step removal had been the subject of a procedural workaround at East Midlands Airport and other UK airports where the ground handling company operated. This procedural workaround had been happening for many years and had not been identified in audits.

Both the ground handling company and the operator took safety action to address issues raised in the investigation.

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.

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

BIM72070 - Cash basis: transitional adjustments: leaving the cash basis: overview

BIM72070 - Cash basis: transitional adjustments: leaving the cash basis: overview

Chapter 17 of Part 2 ITTOIA 2005

The transitional tax adjustments described in this section are all concerned with ensuring that business income is taxed once and only once, and business expense is relieved once and only once. When a business opts to calculate its profits in accordance with generally accepted accounting practice (GAAP) instead of using cash basis, correctly prepared accruals basis profit and loss accounts should include only income earned from work done in the tax year.

This means that any money received from customers in this new tax year for work done in the previous (cash basis) tax year, would not be included in the accruals basis accounts income figure. Because the money was not received in the cash basis tax year, it will not have been taxed.

So unless adjustments are made as described below, income would not be taxed correctly. Similar considerations apply to expenses (in respect of the period in which a business gets tax deductions).

The adjustments have to be calculated in a specified way, in accordance with the legislation, to give an overall positive or negative adjustment. The way the adjustment is treated for tax depends on whether it is positive or negative. The method of calculating the adjustment, and the tax treatment, are described at BIM72071.

If any prepayments were made while in the cash basis (that is, up front payments for goods or services that would be supplied in periods after leaving the cash basis - so there was a tax deduction for the full amount paid, in the cash basis), no adjustment has to be made in the first tax period after the business leaves the cash basis. However, any subsequent expense in the accruals accounts that relate to the prepayment must be disallowed for tax. This is explained at BIM72072.

There are specific considerations for equipment. In the cash basis, a business deducts the amounts paid for equipment. When not in the cash basis, the amounts paid for equipment are not deducted in calculating accruals basis profits. Instead, capital allowances are claimed on the cost of the equipment.
