Low risk waste positions: miscellaneous
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-02)

The Environment Agency has provided these low risk waste positions (LRWPs) for waste operations that it considers may be suitable for an exemption.

If the Environment Agency provides a LRWP for an activity, you can carry it out without an environmental permit for a waste operation provided that you meet all the conditions.

The Environment Agency may review its LRWPs. It may decide the activity is no longer suitable for a LRWP or that the conditions need changing. You must regularly check that the LRWP you are benefiting from is still in place.

Miscellaneous LRWPs that have been withdrawn

These LRWPs have been withdrawn as they are no longer required:
- Storing and bagging spent mushroom compost: LRWP 15
- Repairing, refurbishing and cleaning intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) formally used in the food industry: LRWP 67
- Storing and bottling wash water from flushing bottling machines: LRWP 4
LRWP 78 was withdrawn on 21 July 2025. It has been replaced by the regulatory position statement Storing and treating waste oyster shells: RPS 347 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/storing-and-treating-waste-oyster-shells-rps-347).

LRWP 76 was withdrawn on 2 December 2025. It has been replaced by the regulatory position statement Storing and treating waste spectacles: RPS 348 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/storing-and-treating-waste-spectacles-rps-348).

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 Mountain Way 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 The Mountain Way 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
- UK Wounded, Injured And Sick
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.
Recognising and reporting scam e-mails
Source: gov.uk (2025-05-30)

Here's some information and guidance on what to do if you receive a scam e-mail

Fraudulent emails

We have received reports from businesses about fraudulent emails falsely claiming to be from regulated legal professionals including solicitors and barristers. These scam messages may misuse the names and contact details of unconnected registered solicitors. The messages may include their Solicitors’ Regulation Authority (SRA) number to promote bogus ‘services’ and give an air of legitimacy to their activities. Their communications may also falsely suggest they have an affiliation with the IPO.

Suggested action you can take

Impersonating a solicitor is a criminal offence. We are urging anyone targeted to report this to the police via Report Fraud (reportfraud.police.uk), or your local Trading Standards office (https://www.gov.uk/find-local-trading-standards-office). After obtaining an Report Fraud reference number, you can also report a summary to the SRA. The SRA also provides helpful guidance on identifying bogus law firms (https://www.sra.org.uk/solicitors/guidance/bogus-law-firms-identity-theft/) and responding to identity theft.

If you are unsure and would like further guidance or receive any other unsolicited IP related communication, please contact us at xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx).

PM call with Prime Minister Carney of Canada: 29 July 2025
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-29)

The Prime Minister spoke to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney this afternoon.

The Prime Minister spoke to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney this afternoon.

He started by setting out his announcement this afternoon that the UK is on a path to recognise the State of Palestine before UNGA in September unless Israel significantly changes course. He said that this would be part of a process that ultimately results in peace and security for those in the region, and set out the details of the pathway to peace, working with other key allies.

The Prime Minister was clear that the UK remains unwavering in its call for Hamas to release all hostages, that it must disarm, and that it can play no role in the governance of a future Palestinian state. He said that the UK’s action was driven by alleviating the situation on the ground and bringing an end to the appalling suffering and starvation taking place.

They agreed that aid must urgently be delivered into Gaza in significant volumes, and committed to work together on practical solutions to alleviate the catastrophic humanitarian situation unfolding.

The leaders agreed to stay in close touch.
Energy calculation as a service (ECaaS): Access the Home Energy Model
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-03)

ECaaS provides an API to the Home Energy Model so users can produce software, and a basic frontend so users can validate building designs.

Energy Calculation as a Service (ECaaS) is a calculator service run by MHCLG (Ministry of Housing, Communities, and Local Government) that provides a performant implementation of the Home Energy Model (https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/home-energy-model-replacement-for-the-standard-assessment-procedure-sap) (HEM), a methodology for predicting the energy performance of buildings, for various future statutory purposes including, but not limited to, calculating compliance with the Future Homes Standard (https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/the-future-homes-and-buildings-standards-2023-consultation/the-future-homes-and-buildings-standards-2023-consultation) (FHS).

The service takes the form of an API that can be used by authorised bodies to build software for statutory purposes that require calculations using the Home Energy Model. The service will become the only valid means to confirm compliance with Part L of the Building Regulations when referring to the Future Homes Standard. For other users, the underlying software libraries are open source and can be used to conduct calculations for non-statutory purposes.

If you think you should have access to the ECaaS API contact xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx)

The Rust library used by ECaaS, developed within MHCLG, can be found on GitHub (https://github.com/communitiesuk/epb-home-energy-model), and the Python implementation written by BRE (https://bregroup.com/) under commission from DESNZ (Department of Energy Security and Net Zero) is published on BRE’s Azure DevOps space (https://dev.azure.com/BreGroup/_git/Home%20Energy%20Model).

A basic web frontend is being developed to support stakeholders as they familiarise themselves with the HEM methodology and work out the impact on the types of home that they are building.

Introduction

Duplicate certificates

If your certificate of origin is lost or stolen, then depending on who authenticated the original certificate, you will need to contact either HMRC, the British Chambers of Commerce (BCC) or the Office of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers (ICS) to request a duplicate certificate.

Duplicate certificates must:
- be completed with the word 'Duplicate' in Box 7 of an EUR1/EUR-MED, and
- show the date (and for some Agreement preferences the serial number) of the original certificate. The period of validity of the duplicate shall take effect from the date of the original.
The preference certificates are printed in sets with the second and third sheets re-printed with the words 'Duplicate' or 'Copy'. These are not acceptable. Neither are photocopies and carbon copies presented as duplicates.

Businesses will need to declare in writing that they do not have the original but will surrender it immediately to HMRC if it becomes available later.

Replacement certificates of origin on the basis of a certificate of origin already issued

When products originating in a partner country are placed under customs control in the United Kingdom (UK), it shall be possible for HMRC, the BCC or the ICS to replace the original proof of origin by one or more EUR.1 movement certificates for the purpose of sending all or some of those products elsewhere the UK. The replacement movement certificate shall be issued by the customs office under whose control the products are placed.

Retrospective certificates (issued after exportation of the goods)

Retrospective certificates (issued after exportation of the goods) should be marked 'Issued Retrospectively' in Box 4 of a DCTS Form A or Box 7 of an EUR1 / EUR-MED (this may be in another EU language).

AAIB Record-only investigations reviewed: September - October 2025
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-11)

This is a list of AAIB Record-only investigations that were reviewed during September - October 2025.

Details

When an accident or incident is reported to the AAIB it can be classified as Formal, Field, Correspondence or Record Only investigation. Further information regarding the first three types of investigation can be found on our How we investigate page. (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/how-we-investigate/how-we-investigate)

An occurrence that is classified as being ‘Record Only’ is one that if investigated fully has little likelihood of identifying new safety lessons that will advance aviation safety.

This process of gathering and analysis of information is being carried out initially by the Duty Co-ordinator from the notification and will make a conclusion to ‘record only’ if there is enough information in order to analyse and draw a conclusion. If there is not enough information at notification stage, then a form is sent to the pilot in order to gather more information for analysis and a decision on whether a fuller investigation is needed.

The occurrence details are reviewed and recorded in tabular format and published bimonthly online and in the March, May, July, September, November and January Bulletins.

Details of previous record-only investigations can be found on the Record-only investigations page. (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/aaib-record-only-investigations)

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 XTE 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 XTE 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
- Discounts
- Armed Forces Charities
- UK Wounded, Injured And Sick
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.
