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 Cargo Carrier Solutions 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 Cargo Carrier Solutions 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
We also pledge the following:

-Working with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP), in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for Service Leavers

Find out about our financial support for SME Housebuilders
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-09)

Homes England is helping hundreds of small and medium sized housebuilders to kickstart projects by providing development loans from £250,000 to over £10 million.

The Home Building Fund is designed for housebuilders based in England that are struggling to access finance from traditional lenders. Loans can be tailored to your individual circumstances and can be used to meet the development costs of building homes for sale or rent. Financing is also available to support community-led housing projects, serviced plots for custom and self-builders, off-site manufacturing, new entrants to the market and groups of small firms working in consortia to deliver larger sites.

Our flexible approach, along with our in-depth knowledge of the housing sector, makes us uniquely placed to support businesses of all sizes to deliver new homes.

The Home Building Fund can help if you:
- are a UK-registered corporate entity or limited liability partnership
- plan to build 5 or more homes on a site in England
- have a controlling interest in the land, with outline planning permission in place
More information about the fund can be found in our Home Building Fund guidance (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/levelling-up-home-building-fund-development-finance), and you can also arrange a call with one of our regional specialists by:

EIM43570 - Globally mobile employees: Overseas Workday Relief: qualifying foreign third party income
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-31)


Section 41V ITEPA 2003 defines what it means for third party income to be “qualifying third party income” and for qualifying third party income to be “qualifying foreign third party income”.

“Third party income” is an amount that counts as employment income under Chapter 2 of Part 7A ITEPA 2003 (see EIM45000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim45000)+).

Third party income is “qualifying third party income” to the extent that the value of the relevant step that counts as employment income is “for” the qualifying year (see EIM45720 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim45720)) and it is in respect of an employment the duties of which are performed wholly or partly outside the UK during the qualifying year.

If the qualifying year is a split year, only the third party income attributable to the UK part of the year can be qualifying third party income. Any attribution required is to be done on a just and reasonable basis.

Qualifying third party income is “qualifying foreign third party income” to the extent that it is not in respect of duties performed in the UK. The extent to which qualifying third party income is not in respect of duties performed in the UK is to be determined on a just and reasonable basis. Section 41Y applies in determining the location of employment duties for the purpose of this Chapter. More information can be found on the following manual pages:
- EIM40202 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim40202) – in respect of periods of absence
- EIM40206 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim40206) – in respect of duties performed on a vessel or aircraft
- EIM40208 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/employment-income-manual/eim40208) – in respect of workers in the offshore oil and gas industry on the UK continental shelf
Please note that section 39 ITEPA 2003 in connection to incidental duties has not been extended to this Chapter.

Lawrence Tallon today (1 April 2025) begins his role as Chief Executive Officer of the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).

Lawrence brings a strong focus on patient safety, innovation and partnership working, which have been central to his previous roles including as Deputy Chief Executive of Guy’s and St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust since March 2020.

Lawrence said: “I am delighted to be joining the MHRA, which plays a vital role in ensuring people across the UK and the NHS have access to safe and effective medicines and medical devices.

“My priorities are patient safety, improving patient access to new medicines and medical devices through risk-proportionate regulation, innovation and growth, and building partnerships in the UK and internationally.”

Lawrence has also been Managing Director of the Shelford Group, which represents some of England’s leading NHS teaching hospitals. This experience has given him valuable insight into the challenges and opportunities facing modern healthcare and life science systems.

Prior to this he served as Director of Strategy, Planning and Performance at University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust and worked within the Department of Health and Social Care alongside ministers and NHS leaders.

Lawrence succeeds Dr June Raine DBE, who is retiring after leading the MHRA since 2019, having steered the agency through the COVID-19 pandemic and the UK’s exit from the European Union.

AAIB investigation to Cessna T210M, N761JU
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-06)

Cessna T210M (N761JU), loss of control on takeoff, Leeds East Airport, 11 April 2024

An undetected pitch trim setting resulted in the pilot attempting to takeoff with close to full nose down elevator trim. The pilot rejected the takeoff, whereupon the aircraft briefly became airborne, but the pilot was unable to effectively control the aircraft in pitch. The aircraft bounced several times causing the aircraft’s nosewheel to fail and the aircraft to slew off the runway. The remains of the aircraft’s nose landing gear dug into the soft ground and N761JU came to rest inverted. The pilot suffered only minor injuries while his more securely restrained passenger sustained major injuries which he succumbed to several days later.

The investigation detected an intermittent fault with the autopilot system which might have contributed to the elevator trim moving towards the nose down position. This would have likely been undetectable by the pilot unless he was looking at the trim wheel as it moved. The investigation could not determine why the autopilot might have been engaged for the takeoff roll. The Pilot’s Operating Handbook and Quick Reference Handbook did not contain supplementary instructions for the autopilot system, nor did they contain autopilot related checklists or abnormal procedures.

The CAA has taken safety action to promote best practice for pilots in the operation of the autopilot systems fitted to the aircraft they fly. This includes updates to differences training to include autopilot systems. A Safety Recommendation has been made to the CAA to publish guidance and best practice for pilots, covering the use of autopilots in General Aviation.

Document setting out how the Ministry of Housing Communities and Local Government intend to conduct publication, notification and consultation in considering a request for planning permission for an Entertainment Resort Complex and associated development in Bedford.

The Proposal seeks planning permission for EIA development (within the meaning of regulation 2) of the Town and Country Planning (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2017). These regulations prevent the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government from granting planning permission for development that requires an Environmental Impact Assessment unless such an assessment has been carried out of that development. The document below details the approach that MHCLG intends to follow regarding publication, notification and consultation when considering a request for planning permission for an Entertainment Resort Complex and associated development, Bedford.

Karin report published
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-16)

Fatal injury to a recreational diver following contact with a motor vessel operating as a recreational dive support vessel.

Today, we have published our accident investigation report into the fatal injury to a recreational diver following contact with the motor vessel Karin operating as a recreational dive support vessel on 28 September 2023.

Chief Inspector of Marine Accidents, Andrew Moll OBE, said:

Our findings highlight that all stakeholders, including operators, regulators, and industry bodies, must always prioritise the safety of those who are on the water, be that for work or pleasure.

The basic principles of good watchkeeping: vigilance, clear communication and adherence to operational procedures for the activities undertaken are well tried and tested. Had they been followed during this event, particularly with two vessels operating in close proximity to submerged divers, this tragic accident could have been avoided.

As highlighted in both our previous safety bulletin and in the final report, a delayed surface marker buoy (DSMB) plays a crucial part in diver safety by enhancing a diver’s visibility and indicating their presence to surface craft. However, divers must ensure that they can quickly release the DSMB should it become snagged or the line jammed and not attach it to their person at any time.

The report, available via this link, contains details of what happened, subsequent actions taken and recommendations. (https://www.gov.uk/maib-reports/fatal-injury-to-a-recreational-diver-following-contact-with-the-motor-vessel-karin-operating-as-a-recreational-dive-support-vessel)

Schools have the flexibility to deliver the free breakfast club in a way that best meets the needs of their school, pupils and families.

These case studies showcase the different ways schools are delivering the free breakfast clubs and include examples of :
- staffing
- logistics
