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 RWE Renewables Management UK Limited 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;

- Armed Forces Friendly

- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
We also pledge the following:

-Seeking to support the employment of veterans young and through our inclusive recruitment practices and working with the Career Transition Partnership to highlights transition opportunities

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.
IMPS02300 - Background information and policy objectives: accounting of import VAT
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-09)


VAT becomes due at the time of importation when a customs debt arises. However, when goods are entered to one of the following suspensive arrangements, customs duty and/or import VAT become due only if or when the goods are subsequently removed to free circulation in the UK.

The suspensive arrangements are:
- Inward processing
- Temporary Admission (with total relief from customs duties)
- Customs Warehousing
- Isle of Man Free Zones
- External or internal transit - (although internal transit is not a customs suspensive procedure it is included here as import VAT may become due if the goods are subsequently removed to free circulation)
- Goods admitted into territorial waters under Authorised Use relief in order to be incorporated into offshore drilling or production platforms for the purposes of the construction, repair, maintenance, conversion or fitting out of such platforms, or to link such drilling or production platforms to the mainland of the UK or for the fuelling and provision of drilling or production platforms. This covers equipping offshore fixed drilling or production platforms within sub-heading 8430 49 and floating or submersible drilling or production platforms of tariff sub-heading 8905 20 irrespective of whether the fixed or floating platforms are located within or outside territorial waters and tubes, pipes, cables and connection pieces linking drilling or production platforms to the mainland.
Import VAT can be accounted for through immediate payment, deferment or through Postponed VAT Accounting (PVA).

Import VAT can be deferred if the importer or their agent are approved for duty deferment.

PVA allows a UK VAT Registered trader to notify HMRC of their intention to account for import VAT on their VAT return. Where PVA is notified the VAT amount will appear on monthly VAT statement that the trader will access digitally. They will use the statement to provide them with the amount of import VAT to be accounted for in box 1 of their VAT return and the amount that can be reclaimed as input VAT in box 4 of their VAT return (subject to the normal rules).

More guidance on the use of PVA is available in Check when you can account for import VAT on your VAT Return (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/check-when-you-can-account-for-import-vat-on-your-vat-return) and in subsequent pages of guidance.

Business rates: forward look
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-11)

An overview of the expected timeline for reforms and how stakeholders should engage the government.

The government is creating a fairer business rates system that protects the high street, supports investment, and is fit for the 21st century. This process began with announcements at Autumn Budget 2024, where the government announced its intention to introduce two lower multipliers for Retail, Hospitality and Leisure properties with rateable values below £500,000. At that Budget, the government also published the ‘Transforming Business Rates’ Discussion Paper to kickstart a process of working with stakeholders to design improvements to the business rates system.

Transforming the business rates system is a multi-year process. The government will consider reforms to the system over the course of this Parliament, alongside the revaluation of properties in 2026 and 2029.

IEIM402505 - Due Diligence: General Requirements: Introduction
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-06)


Due Diligence: General Requirements: Introduction

Due diligence requirements apply for ‘new’ accounts [see IEIM403120] and ‘pre-existing’ accounts [see IEIM402640].

For both the automatic exchange of financial account information regimes the Regulations require Financial Institutions to identify and maintain information on the tax residence of Account Holders, irrespective of whether or not they are tax resident in a Reportable Jurisdiction [see IEIM402340]. This is referred to as the ‘wider approach’ [see IEIM400140]. Financial Institutions are required to carry out due diligence procedures on financial accounts that they hold in order to establish if the person holding the account is tax resident in a jurisdiction with which the UK has agreed to automatically exchange information. For automatic exchange with the USA under FATCA the Financial Institution must establish whether the person is tax resident in the USA or, for individuals, is a citizen of the USA irrespective of where they are resident.

If the Account Holder [see IEIM402015] is identified as being tax resident in any of the jurisdictions with which the UK has agreed to exchange information on a reciprocal basis then they are a Reportable Person [see IEIM403440] and the account is a Reportable Account [see IEIM401520].

An account is treated as a Reportable Account as of the date it is identified as such pursuant to the due diligence procedures that Financial Institutions must follow. The requirement to apply due diligence procedures for pre-existing accounts is subject to certain options that Financial Institutions may elect to apply such that accounts below de minimis thresholds are not subject to review [see IEIM402565].

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 Meeting Makers Limited 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 Meeting Makers Limited 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
- 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.

A residential development comprising of up to 200 dwellings. Also to include commercial business and service uses (Use Class E), drinking establishment and hot food takeaway (Sui Generis).  To include Associated works and infrastructure.

Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) is a relatively new activity for local planning authorities, developers and landowners. The government has decided that from June 2013, CIL appeal decision notices will be published by the Valuation Office Agency (VOA) in a redacted anonymous form.

In making decisions available to the public, useful lessons about CIL regulations and appeals can be shared. Publication will also allow any precedents to be understood more widely.

Personal information will be redacted before publication. This could be information such as the:
- name of the appellant
- collecting authority
- address of the property
- amount of CIL payable

CTM16100 - Distributions: impact on Corporation Tax: receipt by UK resident company
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-29)


A distribution from a UK resident company is income in the hands of an individual who receives it. See SAIM5020 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/savings-and-investment-manual/saim5020) for the treatment of a distribution in the hands of an individual beneficially entitled to it.

A UK resident company is not chargeable to Income Tax or Corporation Tax in respect of any distribution received from another UK resident company. The rule formerly at ICTA88/S208 was briefly re-enacted as CTA09/S1285. Following the enactment of CTA09/PART9A by FA09/SCH14, the treatment of distributions in the hands of a UK resident company does not distinguish between origin in a UK resident or non-UK resident company. Exemption applies to both, but subject to certain exceptions - see INTM651000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm651000) onwards.

Where the distribution is a qualifying distribution, other than a foreign income dividend (FID -see CTM20070 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm20070)), the distribution plus the tax credit is franked investment income of the recipient company, see CTM16120 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm16120).

Where the qualifying distribution:
- is a dividend, and
- has been paid before 6 April 1999, under an ICTA88/S247 election without the paying company accounting for ACT,
the distribution is 'group income' of the receiving company, see CTM80070 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm80070).

When before 6 April 1999 the qualifying distribution received was a foreign income dividend, the FID received could frank FIDs paid. See CTM21250 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm21250).

A non-qualifying distribution, see CTM15900 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm15900) onwards, is neither income nor franked investment income in the hands of the receiving company.

Where the recipient is a non-UK resident company, see CTM34270 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm34270).

Super-complaint on the police response to stalking
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-08)

Super-complaint submitted by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, on behalf of the National Stalking Consortium about the police response to stalking.

The Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC), HM Inspectorate of Constabulary and Fire & Rescue Services (HMICFRS) and the College of Policing have published a report in response to the super-complaint submitted by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust, on behalf of the National Stalking Consortium. The super-complaint raised concerns about how police forces in England and Wales respond to reports of stalking.

A joint investigation by the IOPC (https://www.policeconduct.gov.uk/complaints/super-complaints/police-response-stalking), HMICFRS (https://hmicfrs.justiceinspectorates.gov.uk/publications/suzy-lamplugh-trusts-super-complaint-the-police-response-to-stalking) and the College of Policing (https://www.college.police.uk/article/changes-needed-improve-police-response-stalking) found that significant changes are needed to improve the police response to reports of stalking in England and Wales.

The joint investigation report includes a series of recommendations aimed at supporting policing to make the necessary improvements to ensure reports of stalking are consistently taken seriously and victims are better safeguarded. There are recommendations for chief constables, as well as for the Home Office, the Ministry of Justice, police and crime commissioners and the Crown Prosecution Service. These include recommendations for changes to the law around stalking and stalking protection orders. There are also actions for the College of Policing and the IOPC to further develop the available guidance and advice for police on responding to reports of stalking.

RDRM32230 - Remittance Basis: Accessing the remittance basis: Long Term UK Residents: Counting years of UK residence - Minors
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


From 6 April 2025 it is not possible to use the remittance basis of taxation, however, any foreign income or gains that have arisen to a former remittance basis user prior to this date will continue to be taxed at the usual tax rates if they are remitted to the UK on or after 6 April 2025, subject to any amounts designated under the temporary repatriation facility (TRF) – see RDRM71000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/residence-domicile-and-remittance-basis/rdrm71000).

The guidance in this section only applies to tax years up to and including the 2024-25 tax year and remains for reference purposes only.

The remittance basis charge is only payable by long-term residents aged 18 of over.

However tax years in which the individual is under 18 are counted in determining years of residence for the ‘seven out of nine’ rule.

Example

Pranav was born on 23 October 1991. He came to the UK as a school boarder in August 2001 (tax year 2001-2002). He is domiciled outside the UK. He has stayed in education in the UK for every tax year since.

In 2008-2009 Pranav has foreign income of £300,000 and he claims to use the remittance basis in that year. He is a long-term resident in the UK as he has been UK resident for eight years, but as he is under 18 he may use the remittance basis in 2008-2009 without paying the remittance basis charge.

In October 2009 (tax year 2009-2010) Pranav turns 18. He has foreign income of £400,000. If he wishes to claim the remittance basis for that tax year he will be liable to the remittance basis charge.

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 Aaron Rail 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 Aaron Rail 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
- 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.
