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 Verto People 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 Verto People 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:

This guidance will help providers and employers to deliver high-quality industry placements, which form a mandatory component of the T Level programme.

This guidance is for:
- the principals, senior leadership teams, governing bodies, trustees, and staff of all institutions delivering T Levels
- all institutions delivering T Level-style placements through the industry placement capacity and delivery fund, and those considering offering T Levels
- industry and employers interested in or involved in delivering T Level or T Level-style industry placements, and their representative bodies
We have removed annex A, on delivery approaches, and moved relevant guidance into the delivery guidance document.

We have also published:
- a guide for students to help them prepare for their placement (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/student-guide-preparing-for-industry-placements)

MTT27180 - Calculating the effective tax rate: Covered tax balance: Deferred tax: Cross-border allocation
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


Deferred tax expense in respect of deferred tax assets and liabilities (on the balance sheet) is to be allocated between the standard members of a group in one territory to the standard members of the group in another territory, in accordance with the deferred taxes methodology.

This is set out in section 181B of Finance (No.2) Act 2023.

Deferred taxes methodology

The deferred taxes methodology is set out in Chapter 4.2 of the June 2024 Agreed Administrative Guidance document (https://www.oecd.org/content/dam/oecd/en/topics/policy-sub-issues/global-minimum-tax/administrative-guidance-global-anti-base-erosion-rules-pillar-two-june-2024.pdf) published by the OECD.

When using this guidance, the OECD defined terms should be read as if they were substituted by their equivalents in UK legislation. For example, a reference to a Five-Year Election is to be read as an election to which paragraph 1 of Schedule 15 (long term elections) applies.

The methodology may be enacted into UK legislation by regulations.

Introduction in Finance Act 2025

Section 181B was introduced in FA25. This guidance page reflects the current version of the legislation. Consult FA25 for legislation applicable to prior periods if the retrospection election does not apply (see MTT09490 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt09490)).

Border locations receiving goods that are moving from outside GB will be able to choose between these two main models, temporary storage and pre-lodgement. Where neither of these models’ suit, applicants can approach HMRC to suggest a bespoke model.

Temporary Storage

The traditional Temporary Storage model, where goods coming into GB can be stored at the frontier for up to 90 days before being declared to customs. Goods imported from outside GB can be stored temporarily under customs control before they are released to free circulation, exported or placed under the outward processing procedure, or placed under a special procedure (inward processing, customs warehousing, authorised use, or temporary admission). This will mean traders can defer making a customs declaration and paying duties and taxes for up to 90 days from the date the goods are presented. An authorisation is required to operate a temporary storage facility.

If the port has chosen the Temporary Storage model upon presentation to Customs, then the goods will be in Temporary Storage.

The leaders reflected on the UK and Netherlands’ strong friendship and shared approach to global challenges. They talked about the successes of existing cooperation on tackling organised crime, including the people smuggling gangs driving illegal migration. The Prime Minister set out the UK’s approach to disrupting these criminals, and agreed further cooperation with the Netherlands on this issue.

The Prime Minister then reflected on his attendance at the Informal European Council meeting in Brussels on Monday, and his ambition to strengthen cooperation with the EU for mutual benefit through the UK-EU reset.

Discussing Putin’s illegal war in Ukraine, the Prime Minister reiterated the UK’s iron-clad support and the leaders underscored their commitment to working together so that Ukraine is in the strongest possible position. They agreed to work towards a new bilateral security partnership led by their Foreign Ministers.

Turning to technology and innovation, the leaders agreed on the importance of moving at pace to seize on the opportunities offered by new and emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, quantum and semiconductors, and agreed to pursue a new innovation partnership to accelerate growth in key technologies.

On the subject of energy, the Prime Minister shared details on his plans to make it easier to build nuclear infrastructure in the UK. The leaders agreed to work towards a new agreement on sustainable energy, including nuclear, and both agreed on the importance of energy security.

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 Ardesey 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 Ardesey 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:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
We also pledge the following:

Employment support to members of the Armed Forces Community: provide a free to user job site to help keep Veterans and those exiting the Armed Forces to in the defence enterprise

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.
