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 Bramwith Consulting 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;

- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists

We also pledge the following:

-Working with the CTP in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for service leavers

DESNZ intends to launch a new East Coast Cluster (ECC) Teesside selection process from early 2026 for the Teesside network. The process will identify new carbon capture projects that could connect to the ECC Teesside network, help utilise remaining licensed CO2 storage capacity at Endurance, and support HMG’s Growth and Net Zero missions.

Following financial close for the ECC transport and storage network (Northern Endurance Partnership) and Net Zero Teesside in December 2024, and subject to ongoing negotiations with the remaining projects on the Projects Negotiations List (published in March 2023), HMG anticipates in the region of 1 Mtpa of T&S capacity may be available from 2029. HMG may also take forward additional projects into negotiations beyond current capacity to maintain contingency and capture network-optimisation opportunities.

Consultation on the VAT treatment of business donations of goods to charity
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-26)

The government is seeking views on the introduction and design of a VAT relief on goods donated to charities to give away free of charge or use in the delivery of their services.

This consultation seeks views on the design of a VAT relief on business donations of goods to charity for distribution to those in need, or use by the charity in the delivery of their services.

The government recognises the current VAT rules, which relieve VAT on goods donated to charity for sale (for example through a charity shop), but not for onward donation or the delivery of the charity’s services, are not aligned. These rules were designed to protect against fraud in the VAT system. We are exploring options to align the rules without compromising the security of the VAT system.

The consultation aims to better understand the different types of operating models used by businesses and charities which would be impacted, as well as gathering views on the scope of a relief, particularly eligible goods, and the design of its administration, among other topics.
Long-term energy system modelling in developing countries: an open-source optimization approach for energy transition analysis in Ghana

Study explores potential pathways for Ghana to achieve its renewable energy production targets.

Abstract

The open-source energy modelling tool (OSeMOSYS) was used to assess 4 scenarios accounting for current policies and additional alternatives to pursue energy transition goals. The results indicate that total power generation and installed capacity would increase across all scenarios, with natural gas playing a key role.

Clean flexibility roadmap
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-22)

A roadmap setting out the government’s vision for a clean, flexible, consumer-focused electricity system.

The clean flexibility roadmap outlines a vision for a cleaner, more flexible electricity system, which maximises the use of energy infrastructure to minimise energy bills for consumers.

Flexibility is essential for integrating the new home grown, renewable power we are building to reduce our reliance on expensive and volatile international fossil fuel markets. It is also crucial for delivering the government’s Clean Energy Superpower Mission to achieve clean power by 2030 and net zero by 2050.

Developed by the government, Ofgem and NESO, alongside energy industry stakeholders and consumer groups, the roadmap commits named organisations to specific, timebound actions to unlock flexible electricity capacity. It establishes an enduring governance framework to facilitate implementation, through tracking progress, holding action owners to account, and enabling further measures to be taken where required.

CCPG11020 - Customs law and HMRC compliance strategy: HMRC compliance strategy
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-07)


HMRC’s strategy is to encourage voluntary compliance.

HMRC is there to help and support those who want to be compliant in their International Trade activity and we will offer support, education and advice to those who have made an error through lack of knowledge or understanding. However, we will consider taking Customs Civil Penalty (CCP) action when there is evidence that a trader has failed to address areas of non-compliance or is continuing to be consistently non-compliant.

If individuals and businesses make mistakes when they first use a customs procedure we may help them to comply by providing education and advice, which we subsequently confirm in a letter of written instruction. If there is a repeat of the same error once a written instruction has been issued, a penalty may be charged.

We issue information for customers in Notice 301 Civil Penalties for Contraventions of Customs law.

Where education is not appropriate, we seek to encourage future compliance by using the tools available to promote and encourage compliance. These include
- issuing Civil Penalty Warning Letters,
- issuing Civil Penalties, or
- recommending the amendment or revocation of an authorisation(s).
We do not issue penalties if traders voluntarily disclose contraventions (see paragraph 3.3 of Notice 301.)

HAIRS risk assessment: influenza of avian origin in lactating livestock
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-27)

Qualitative assessment of the risk lactating livestock infected with influenza of avian origin presents to the UK human population

In this assessment, the risk associated with human exposure to all lactating livestock is being considered, not just dairy animals that are habitually kept for the production of milk for commercial reasons. This follows the finding of avian influenza virus in a lactating ewe in March 2025, which had been in close contact with captive birds at a backyard premises, which had previously been confirmed as being infected with highly pathogenic avian influenza A(H5N1).

This assessment considers the risk lactating livestock infected with influenza of avian origin presents to the UK human population, assuming infection was a more regular occurrence in lactating livestock. The assessment considers exposure to infected animals, their contaminated environments and animal products.

IEIM8000295 - Interaction with the Common Reporting Standard (CRS)
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-04)


As the CARF is a separate and complementary framework, there will be some entities reporting under both the CRS and the CARF. In addition to the CARF excluding central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and specified electronic money products (SEMPs), the following features of the two sets of rules are designed to reduce duplication.
- Where an asset qualifies as both a relevant cryptoasset under the CARF and a financial asset under CRS (e.g. shares issued in crypto form), gross proceeds are only reportable under the CARF unless the RCASP that is also a financial institution elects to also report such proceeds under the CRS.
- Indirect investments in relevant cryptoassets through traditional financial products, such as derivatives or interests in investment vehicles, are covered by the CRS.

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 Housing 21 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 Housing 21 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
- UK Reservists
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
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.
