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 Denchi Group 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 Denchi Group 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:
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets

ARTG3060 - Reviews and appeals for indirect taxes: Appealing against a decision or assessment: Customer asks for extension of review acceptance
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-18)


Decision makers must offer customers a review within the decision letter. The customer may accept the review offer or appeal to the tribunal within 30 days of the date of the letter. Decisions falling under s14 Finance Act 1994 allow a person 45 days to send a notice requiring a review to the Commissioners. This includes certain Customs Duties, Agricultural Levy and Excise Duty decisions. Alternatively the customer may ask for an extension to the period for accepting the offer of a review, for example if they have further information or arguments to put to the decision maker.

Section 83D VATA 1994 (Section 15D FA 1994) allows for an extension of the period in which the customer may accept the offer of a review. In circumstances where the decision maker is aware that the customer is likely to want to provide further information or make representations, use of the Section 83D (Section 15D) provisions is encouraged to prevent cases entering the formal review or appeal process prematurely. An extension of the relevant period under Section 83D (Section 15D) does not have to be requested by the customer and can be offered by the decision maker.

The extension may be for 30 days from
- the date of HMRC’s letter, or
- any other date set out in the letter, or
- any other date set out in a subsequent letter.
If a customer accepts an offer of review, they may not appeal to the tribunal until they are told of the review conclusion or the review period has expired.

If the customer asks for an extension out of time we may treat that as a late review request. Under Section 83E, VATA94 (Section 15E FA94) HMRC will only accept a review request outside the 30 day period if there is a reasonable excuse for the lateness and the request is made without undue delay when the excuse ended.

Alternatively, the customer can ask the tribunal to accept a late appeal notification. We have no power to extend the appeal/review time limit after it has ended.

See ARTG3080 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/appeals-reviews-and-tribunals-guidance/artg3080) for action on receipt of further representations from the customer.

If you use particular pages regularly, please email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know the specific content you find useful.

Risk and Intelligence Service (RIS) play a key role in identifying cases suitable for compliance checks. They do this by working closely across directorates, particularly in Customer Compliance, in developing campaigns and national projects to address the highest risks identified.

Large Business Service carries out its own risk assessments to determine the appropriate compliance checks needed for each business.

The majority of compliance checks within Customer Compliance are carried out because a risk or risks have been identified. The purpose of the compliance check is to address the risks and ensure that the correct amount of tax/duty is collected .

However, some compliance checks are carried out in Customer Compliance as part of HMRC’s random enquiry programme to test our understanding and assessment of risk.

If you find that a case involves capital expenditure where structures and buildings allowance has been claimed, you must contact a capital allowances SPoC, for authority to conduct the check before continuing, see SPoC contacts here and CA90000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-allowances-manual/ca90000)+

You should never start a compliance check unless there is a risk to address or the person has been selected as part of the random enquiry programme.

Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office Main Estimates Memorandum 2025 to 2026
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-16)

This memorandum explains the changes in the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) budgets as part of HM Treasury’s 2025 to 2026 Main Estimates.

This memorandum gives further explanation of the FCDO’s entry in HM Treasury’s 2025 to 2026 Main Estimates (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/main-supply-estimates-2025-to-2026) presented to Parliament on 15 May 2025.

The estimate memorandum is divided into 3 sections:
- FCDO objectives, budgets, main areas of spending and drivers for changes in spending
- detail on budget changes presented in the Main Estimate, in particular additional funding from the Treasury, funding returned to the Treasury and budget transfers between central government departments
- how FCDO spending relates to performance against priorities and also gives details of major FCDO projects
There is a separate memorandum for the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office: Overseas Superannuation. The Overseas Superannuation Account is voted for separately by Parliament because it is deemed for supply purposes to be a department in its own right.

COM53080 - Claims/reliefs: other reliefs: group and consortium relief, how much can be claimed
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-06)


A group relief claim may be made for less than the amount available for surrender by the surrendering company, but no claim may be made for more than the total amount it has available for surrender.

The total amount available for surrender is calculated as follows.

Step 1

Calculate the total amount of group relief the surrendering company could surrender under the rules in Section 403 Income and Corporation Taxes Act (ICTA) 1988 on the basis of the information in its return.

Ignore any amendments the company has made while its return is under enquiry. The effect of these amendments is deferred.

Step 2

Deduct the total of all the group relief for the same Accounting Period (AP) for which the company has already given notices of consent.

Ignore any notices of consent previously given but later withdrawn.

If a company makes and withdraws group relief claims on the same day, give effect to the withdrawals first.

If a group relief claim is for more than the surrendering company has available for surrender at the time the claim is made, the claim is ineffective.

If some claimant companies, together, claim on the same day for an amount greater than the amount available for surrender from a particular surrendering company, you may decide which claims to give effect to and which are to be ineffective. You should exercise this power so as to treat as ineffective the claims, or combination of claims, in the lowest amounts consistent with bringing the total claimed within the limit of the amount available for surrender.

Step 3

Once you have established the appropriate figure of group relief, use function RAMA (Record/Amend Assessment) to record a self assessment or a taxpayer amendment to give effect to the relief.

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 Rooftents 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 Rooftents 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:
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
We also pledge the following:

Offering a free local pick up service for the less able when vehicle repairs are needed

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.
