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 The Client Factory 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;

UK and foreign vessels landings by UK port and UK vessel landings abroad: provisional data.

Highlights
- The total quantity of landings by UK vessels (tonnes) decreased in August 2025 compared to 2024, down 9%. The value of landings in August 2025 (£82.3) decreased compared to 2024 down by 9%.
- Landings in August 2025 were comprised of more Pelagic species (65%). This was driven by uptake of Herring. This is in line with the expected seasonality of Herring stocks where landings are typically higher in summer months (June - August). Pelagic, Demersal and Shellfish species each accounted for a similar amount of value of landings, 35%, 33% and 32%, respectively.

The world will hold the RSF leadership accountable for the crimes committed by their forces: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-30)

Statement by Ambassador James Kariuki, UK Chargé d’Affaires to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on Sudan.

The United Kingdom called for this meeting to be brought forward today, alongside Algeria, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Guyana and Denmark, because we are gravely concerned by the intensifying violence in El Fasher and its devastating consequences for the civilian population.

I will make three points.

First, we call on the Rapid Support Forces to adhere fully to their obligations under international law to protect civilians.

Reports of atrocities, including targeted killings, often on the basis of ethnicity, torture, and sexual and gender-based violence are horrifying.

As my Foreign Minister said yesterday, the world will hold the RSF leadership accountable for the crimes committed by their forces.

They must act now to stop this violence against innocent people.

Second, the RSF must cease all attacks on aid workers and civilian infrastructure.

As we’ve heard, aid workers continue to face attacks, with harrowing reports of executions at El Fasher’s Saudi Maternity Hospital and the killing of clearly identified Sudanese Red Crescent volunteers in North Kordofan.

If verified, such deliberate targeting of humanitarian personnel could constitute a grave violation of International Humanitarian Law.

We urge the parties to cooperate fully with the UN and other humanitarian actors, lift movement restrictions and provide security guarantees to allow unhindered access into and around El Fasher.

Civilians must be able to leave the city safely and access lifesaving aid without obstruction.

We also call on the Sudanese Armed Forces to ensure the Adré border crossing remains open, to allow civilians safe passage and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid.

Finally, there is no military solution to this conflict. Continued fighting will only deepen the crisis and prolong suffering.

The RSF and SAF must halt the fighting, implement a humanitarian pause and return to the political process. We urge all Member States with influence over the parties to press for restraint and support efforts to bring them back to dialogue.

The United Kingdom continues to support efforts by regional and international partners, including the Quad, to secure a ceasefire and advance a credible path toward peace.

We urge all parties to engage constructively with these processes and prioritise the needs of the Sudanese people.

The Council needs to send a strong and unified message that reflects our shared concern and resolve.

And in this regard, I welcome agreement on the Council statement this morning.

The suffering across Sudan must end.
Home Energy Model: replacement for the Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP)
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-02)

We're seeking views on the new Home Energy Model which will replace the Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) for the energy rating of homes.

Update: 1 March 2024

We have extended the consultation closing date to 27 March 2024 (from 6 March).

The Standard Assessment Procedure (SAP) (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/standard-assessment-procedure) is the methodology currently used by the government to estimate the energy performance of homes across the United Kingdom. It is of critical importance to the delivery of our housing and climate change objectives.

The Home Energy Model will replace the SAP for the energy rating of dwellings. It is still under development and we will implement the first version alongside the Future Homes Standard in 2025.

We are consulting on the Model while it is still at a formative stage, so that industry can participate in the development process. This consultation:
- summarises the development and validation work undertaken to date
- invites feedback to enable further model development in advance of its introduction
We will also hold a series of engagement events throughout the consultation period: email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to find out more.

The consultation will be of interest across the built environment sector.

It is part of a wider government package of material relating to the Home Energy Model and the Future Homes Standard. See The Home Energy Model. (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/standard-assessment-procedure#the-home-energy-model)

Source: gov.uk (2025-01-30)

This page includes 2023 to 2024 annual review summaries of Conflict, Stability and Security Fund programmes in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

All Conflict, Stability and Security Fund (CSSF) programmes are reviewed carefully each year. These reviews assess:
- technical and programme management standards including financial and risk management, value for money, conflict and gender sensitivity
- contextual factors such as changes to the political environment
- the outputs and outcomes during the year
Lessons learned are also identified.

An expert team conducts these reviews and include at least one team member who is independent from the programme. The team assesses at 2 levels: output (the direct result of programme activities) and outcome (the changes that these outputs deliver). Assessment scores are on a scale of 4, where outputs or outcomes meet or exceed expectations, to 1, where most targets were not met.

The CSSF team aims to publish information for all programmes. However, because some of the CSSF’s work is very sensitive, we cannot publish details of all programmes. The 2 main reasons for this are:
- to protect national security
- for the safety and security of beneficiaries, partners and partner governments

Income Tax liabilities statistics: tax year 2022 to 2023 to tax year 2025 to 2026
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-25)

These statistics are based on HMRC’s annual Survey of Personal Incomes, a representative sample of individuals in HMRC’s PAYE, Self Assessment and repayment claims administrative systems.

Income Tax liabilities are estimated at the individual level using data from the Survey of Personal Incomes (SPI) on Income Tax payer incomes and circumstances.

Liabilities are amounts of tax due on incomes arising in a given tax year, whereas receipts show amounts paid and collected in a given year. Statistics on Income Tax liabilities will not match those for receipts due to lags in the payment of Income Tax, particularly via Self Assessment, among other reasons.

The tables in this section provide breakdowns of the number of Income Tax payers and Income Tax liabilities by age, sex, country and Government Office Region, marginal Income Tax rate, income source, and tax band.

If you require statistics about how much Income Tax is actually paid and collected by HMRC in any given tax year, or information on how the tax has been collected, please see our statistics on Income Tax receipts (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/income-tax-receipts-statistics).

The nature of how Income Tax is collected means it is not possible to analyse Income Tax receipts by individual characteristics, such as an individual’s marginal tax rate, age, or sex. However, these analyses are possible through modelling Income Tax liabilities based on a representative sample of individuals from administrative data.

HMRC also produce detailed statistics on personal incomes (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/personal-income-by-tax-year).

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 Kinect Services 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 Kinect Services 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
- 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.
