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 Mentrau Amgueddfeydd Ac Orielau Cenedlaethol Cymru/ National Museums & Galleries Of Wales Enterprises Limited will endeavour in our business dealings to uphold the key principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, which are:

- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 Mentrau Amgueddfeydd Ac Orielau Cenedlaethol Cymru/ National Museums & Galleries Of Wales Enterprises Limited recognises the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business.

- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets

IEIM906000 - Partner Jurisdictions and Reportable Jurisdictions
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-07)


Partner Jurisdictions

A ‘Partner Jurisdiction’ is a jurisdiction with which the UK has an agreement or arrangement in force for the automatic exchange of the reportable information specified in section III of the Model Rules and which is identified as such in a published list.

For the 2025 Reportable Period, the UK’s Partner Jurisdictions are:
- Bulgaria
- Canada
- Colombia
- Croatia
- Czechia
- Iceland
- Ireland
- Latvia
- Lithuania
- Netherlands
- New Zealand
- Poland
- Slovak Republic
- Slovenia
- Spain
- Sweden
As and when other jurisdictions confirm that they are ready to exchange information with the UK, HMRC will update this list.

A Partner Jurisdiction is relevant for the purposes of determining whether a Reporting Platform Operator can rely on another Platform Operator (PO) to carry out due diligence and reporting obligations on its behalf. Where the other PO is resident in another jurisdiction, it may carry out due diligence procedures based on substantially similar rules in its Partner Jurisdiction (see IEIM902540 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim902540)).

Reportable Jurisdictions

For the purposes of the UK reporting rules, a 'Reportable Jurisdiction' is
- the UK, and
- any ‘Partner Jurisdiction’ with which the UK is exchanging the reported information
The list of Reportable Jurisdictions determines which Sellers are Reportable Sellers (see IEIM901620 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim901620)) since Reporting Platform Operators (RPOs) are required to report Sellers that are resident in a Reportable Jurisdiction or those who rent a property in a Reportable Jurisdiction (or are paid or credited in respect of it).

This is so that the information reported by RPOs is only exchanged with other jurisdictions that are interested in receiving that data about Sellers resident, or property located, in their jurisdiction, and have made appropriate agreements or arrangements to receive that data. RPOs should not report any information to HMRC on sellers who are not either resident in a Reportable Jurisdiction, or renting out immoveable property in a Reportable Jurisdiction. If an RPO does submit such information they will be contacted by HMRC to amend or delete the relevant submission.

East Marine Plan Scoping Report
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-08)

The Sustainability Appraisal (SA) provides an independent assessment of economic, social and environmental sustainability.

The Scoping Report is the first formal output of the SA process. It provides baseline information on the environmental, social and economic characteristics of the east inshore and offshore marine plan areas, including the likely evolution of the baseline without the East Marine Plan. It also sets out the proposed methodology for taking a natural capital approach to SA, which is the first time this approach has been taken for a SA of an English marine plan. It sets the framework and approach for the SA process and explains how the SA will be undertaken during the following stages of appraisal.

Accompanying the scoping report is:
- A series of report cards which provide a more accessible way of interpreting the findings of the SA scoping process. Expert judgement has been used to determine which elements of the baseline/issues have been included on the report cards.
Available upon request:
- A fully searchable SA baseline database which includes information that can help to characterise the plan areas, identify impacts upon receptors, legislative and policy targets and objectives that should be met, issues that have been identified for each sub-topic, and also identifies known data gaps.

Setting executive salaries: guidance for academy trusts
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-06)

Guidance to support academy trusts setting levels of pay for executive leaders.

Who is this publication for?

This guidance is for:
- trust boards
- chairs of trustees
- academy remuneration committees
- chief financial officers
- accounting officers and chief executive officers
Purpose

This guidance will help academy trusts to:
- make robust, fair, reasonable and defensible decisions about executive pay
- identify the key points for consideration when setting executive salaries
- determine a fair remuneration package that appropriately reflects the level of challenge and responsibility of the role
- justify and be accountable for decisions around executive pay
This guidance applies to salaries for the:
- chief executive officer or accounting officer
- chief financial officer or finance director
- executive head teacher or principal
- any other executive leadership positions
While academy trusts are free to set their own salaries for staff, high pay in the academies sector has been a divisive issue that has been a topic of media scrutiny, and boards should be conscious that their use of public money must represent the best value for money.

This guidance aims to support trusts in making decisions about pay and further enable boards to be confident about, and accountable for, these decisions.

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 Shropshire Community Foundation 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 Shropshire Community Foundation 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
- UK Wounded, Injured And Sick
We also pledge the following:

Promoting Through our Investors in Community Programme: encouraging those organisations who support us to become Armed Forces friendly

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.

Mealy redpoll: licence to sell and exhibit ringed mealy redpoll (GL15)
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-01)

Get a general licence to sell and exhibit mealy redpoll that have been bred in captivity. The bird must be ringed with a size C ring.

This general licence is for the sale, public exhibition and competitive showing of captive-bred mealy redpoll (Carduelis flammea flammea). With the licence you can:
- sell, offer to sell, own and transport for the purpose of selling mealy redpoll
- advertise that you’re selling mealy redpoll
- exhibit or competitively show mealy redpoll
You do not need to apply for this general licence but you must meet its conditions and follow its instructions. This includes letting a vet take samples to confirm the bird’s ancestry if Defra, Natural England or the police demand it.

This licence only covers birds that have been bred in captivity. To count, the bird’s parents must have both been in lawful captivity when the egg it was hatched from was laid.

Using the correct ring

Any birds sold under this licence must be ringed with a size C ring that’s been issued by one of Defra’s approved suppliers (such as the British Bird Council or the International Ornithological Association).

A size C ring must be used because changes in the taxonomic status of mealy redpoll mean that it is now listed under common redpoll (Carduelis flammea). As mealy redpoll legs are too thick to use the sizes specified in schedule 3 part 1 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1981/69) this licence allows you to use a bigger ring.
