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 Provincial Grand Lodge of Jersey 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 Provincial Grand Lodge of Jersey 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 Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
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.
TTM06160 - Relevant shipping profits: Secondary activities qualifying up to set limits
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)


Sale of luxury goods

Whether or not goods are luxury goods depends upon the standard of goods and services that would normally be expected by the passengers on a particular cruise or journey, and the extent to which they will continue to be enjoyed by the purchaser after completion of the journey.Officers should accept turnover from the sale of luxury goods as negligible if it does not exceed 15% of
- total ticket sales plus
- receipts from the letting of cabins and
- sales of food and drink for immediate consumption for that voyage.
The test applies separately to each individual voyage. In this context, a round-the-world cruise should be viewed as a single voyage.Where the turnover from sale of luxury goods on a particular voyage is more than negligible, then the whole of the profits from sale of luxury goods on that particular voyage will fall outside the ring-fence.Where luxury goods are offered for sale on board by third party concessionaires and the ship operator’s income from the concession varies partly in relation to turnover, then the “neglible” test will also apply to the income from the concessionaire.

Is it a qualifying ship?

If the turnover from the sale of luxury goods is significantly more than 10% of total ticket sales, officers should consider whether the ship is in fact a qualifying ship or whether it is being used to provide services of a kind normally offered on land, such as a floating shop, see TTM03600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/tonnage-tax-manual/ttm03600).

Statement from the fifteenth Tata Steel/Port Talbot Transition Board
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-16)

The Tata Steel / Port Talbot Transition Board met for the fifteenth time on 4th September 2025, chaired by the Secretary of State for Wales, the Rt Hon Jo Stevens MP.

The Board reviewed the effectiveness of the UK Government funding so far:
- 37 supply chain businesses had received grants, which had protected nearly 200 jobs in the local area;
- 43 businesses in the local area have received growth and resilience grants;
- 22 new businesses had been created using grants for equipment and training;
- 3,667 training courses, and qualifications have been funded for individuals who have lost their jobs and are seeking new careers;
- 332 people have directly been supported into new jobs using Transition Board funded employability services at Neath Port Talbot Council;
- Nearly 600 Tata Steel employees initially at risk of compulsory redundancy have been offered alternative opportunities within the business; and
- Despite over 2,100 people losing their jobs from TSUK so far, and many more in the supply chain, there has not been a spike in local unemployment levels since September 2024.
There was agreement that the Transition Board’s work was not done. Although all of the UK Government’s £80 million support was now allocated, there was still a job to be done on monitoring the ongoing effectiveness of the funds, implementing the new Economic Growth & Investment Fund, and supporting future investment and regeneration in the region.

The Board also received:
- A presentation from Neath Port Talbot’s Employability Team and from Business Wales explaining the processes and case studies for people and businesses who apply for Transition Board funding;
- An update from Tata Steel UK’s decarbonisation programme – with the construction of the Electric Arc Furnace starting in July 2025; and
- An update from the Department of Business and Trade’s plans for a steel strategy.
Board members (and their deputies) in attendance included: Rt Hon Jo Stevens MP, Secretary of State for Wales; Jack Sargeant MS, Minister for Culture, Skills and Social Partnership; Cllr Steven Hunt, Leader of Neath Port Talbot Council; Frances O’Brien, CEO of Neath Port Talbot Council; Rajesh Nair, CEO of Tata Steel UK; Chris Jaques, Chief HR Officer, Tata Steel UK; Stephen Kinnock, MP for Aberafan Maesteg; David Rees, MS for Aberavon; Anne Jessopp CBE, Sarah Williams-Gardener & Jacqui Murray independent members of the Board; Alun Davies, National Officer for Steel & Metals, Community Union; Tom Hoyles, Politics, Press and Research Officer, GMB Wales & Jason Bartlett Regional Officer of Unite the Union Wales.

Volumetric concrete mixers review
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-26)

Seeking views to justify amending the current policy approach to weight limits for volumetric concrete mixers (VCMs).

A volumetric concrete mixer (VCM) is a type of construction lorry used to carry all components needed for concrete to be mixed on construction sites. VCMs are also known as ‘mobile concrete batching’ plants in the industry.

This call for evidence will help the Department for Transport (DfT) consider if there is evidence to justify amending the current policy approach to weight limits for VCMs.

We are calling for views from individuals, groups and organisations with a specific interest in roadworthiness assurance. For example:
- vehicle operators or leasers
- vehicle manufacturers and their dealerships
- organisations or individuals that maintain vehicles
- trade bodies representing those in the construction sector
- motorists and other road users
- road safety organisations
- local transport and highways authorities
- road enforcement organisations
We are proposing 3 potential options to be considered in relation to the weight increases for VCMs. We also invite respondees to identify any other options and provide supporting evidence where possible.

Source: gov.uk (2025-08-06)


Section 455 (S455) Corporation Taxes Act (CTA) 2010 liabilities must be included in a company’s CT600 tax return. The S455 tax forms part of the calculation of tax payable by the company.

A claim to relief under Section 458 (S458) is a claim for relief against the original tax charge for the Accounting Period (AP) in which the loan was made. The time limit for the claim is four years from the end of the financial year in which the loan is repaid, released or written off.

The tax charge is included within the self assessment tax charge for the period. S458 claims in respect of such loans have to be made in the return, or by amending the return, for the AP in which the loan was made, while that is still possible.

Once the time limit for amending the self assessment has passed, claims have to be made and dealt with in accordance with Schedule 1A Taxes Management Act (TMA) 1970.

Where the claim is made in, or by amending, a company tax return and relief is due at the time the claim is made, the relief is given by reducing the tax payable for the AP. Otherwise, relief is given by discharge or repayment under the Schedule 1A rules.

You may receive a completed form L2P, which is a form provided on the Government website for companies to claim relief. You must look at the information contained in the form to decide whether it should be treated as an amendment to the return, or a Schedule 1A claim.

Where the S455 charge arose for a CT Pay and File AP, CTSA makes no difference to the way relief is given, even if the loan is repaid, released or written off in a CTSA period. S458 claims to relief in respect of loans made in CT Pay and File APs are not within the CTSA regime or dealt with by COTAX. Such claims should be handled using the SAFE computer system. Relief continues to be given against the original tax charge by discharge or repayment. See COM23130 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/cotax-manual/com23130) for further guidance.

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 Future Networks Training 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 Future Networks Training 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
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Discounts
- Armed Forces Charities
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.

Information contents

This action guide explains what you should do on receipt of a request for a direction to be made under Regulation 9(5) ‘Condition B’ from a contractor for whom your office is the Supervising Office.

Action required in the subcontractor's Supervising Office is covered at CISR83630 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/construction-industry-scheme-reform/cisr83630).
- Send the contractor an acknowledgement of receipt of the request unless this has already been done by another HMRC office that has passed the request to you.
- Identify the Supervising Office for the subcontractor from whose payments the contractor has not made the required deductions.
- Write to the subcontractor's Sup;ervising Office using the sample letter set out below.
'There is evidence that my contractor paid your subcontractor £XX.XX in full in the tax month ended 5/MM/YYYY without making the necessary deduction. In the first instance, therefore, my contractor is liable for the deduction that should have been made under Section 61, Finance Act 2004. However, the contractor has asked me to make a direction under Regulation 9(5) of Statutory Instrument No 2045 of 2005, relieving them of the liability on the basis that your subcontractor is not liable to tax or has accounted for the payment and paid any tax on it. Please examine your subcontractor's file and let me know whether you consider that:
- the gross payment referred to above has been included in the subcontractor's return or business accounts, and
- any tax, and Class 4 NIC if appropriate, chargeable on the subcontractor for the relevant year or accounting period has been paid by them.
- Put your papers on BF until the report is received from the subcontractor's Supervising Office.
- If the report is to the effect that ‘Condition B’ at Regulation 9(4) has been met, proceed as follows
- send a letter to the contractor (or agent) saying that the request for a direction under Regulation 9(5) has been accepted
- if the request was referred to you by Debt Management and Banking (DMB) or a Employer Compliance officer, return their papers with a report saying that the request has been accepted and attach a copy of the letter sent to the contractor
- If the report is to the effect that the subcontractor's supervising office concludes that ‘Condition B’ at Regulation 9(4) has not been met, proceed as follows
- send a letter signed by a Higher Officer along the lines of that set out below to the contractor (or agent) saying that you are unable to make a direction under Regulation 9(5).
- if the request for a direction under Regulation 9(5) was referred to you by DMB or a Employer Compliance officer, return their papers with a report saying that the request has been rejected and attach a copy of the letter sent to the contractor.
