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 Corpsvector 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 Corpsvector 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
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists

- Reserve Forces Day
- Discounts
- Armed Forces Charities
- Additional Leave for Reservists
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.

IHTM04286 - Reversionary interests: reversions and foreign issues
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


A reversionary interest (IHTM16231 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm16231)) is an item of property, (IHTM04030 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm04030)) separate from the property in which the interest subsists. If the reversionary interest is itself situated (IHTM27071 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm27071)) outside the UK then, unless the interest is excluded by the main provision in IHTA84/S48 (1), you should proceed as follows

an unsettled reversion will be excluded property (IHTM04251 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm04251)) if the transferor is not a long-term UK resident (IHTM47000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm47000#)) (transfers on or after 6 April 2025) or was domiciled (IHTM13000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm13000)) abroad (transfers before 6 April 2025), IHTA84/S6 (1),

a reversion which is itself comprised in a settlement (IHTM16042 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/inheritance-tax-manual/ihtm16042)) will be excluded property:

at times when the settlor of the reversion is not a long-term UK resident;

if the settlor of the reversion dies on or after 6 April 2025, if they were not a long-term UK resident immediately before their death; or

if the settlor of the reversion died before 6 April 2025 and was domiciled abroad when the reversion became comprised in the settlement, IHTA84/S48 (3).

The situs or locality of a reversionary interest will normally be determined by the residence of the trustee(s) of the property to which the interest relates. Example 1

Mr Richer transfers £100,000 to trustees in Spain on trust for Emily for life with remainder to his wife, Mrs Richer. Some years later, while Emily is alive, Mrs Richer dies when she is not a long-term UK resident and bequeaths all her estate (including her reversionary interest under her husband’s settlement) to her son Miles. Because Mrs Richer’s is the settlor's spouse, the reversion is not excluded from her estate by IHTA84/S48 (1) on her death. But the exclusion provided by IHTA84/S6 (1) applies as both the locality of the reversion is outside the UK and Mrs Richer is not a long-term UK resident. Example 2 The facts are as Example 1 and Miles sells the inherited reversion to Diego. The latter, also not a long-term UK resident, immediately settles the purchased reversion on discretionary trusts. The reversion now comprised in Diego’s settlement, although purchased by the settlor and therefore outside the protection of IHTA84/S48 (1), is (whilst it remains a reversionary interest) excluded property in view of the overseas residence of the trustees of Mr Richer’s settlement and Diego not being a long-term UK resident. If Diego later became a long-term UK resident, the settled reversion would no longer be excluded property.

Can communications create reasonable expectations about uses of health and care data? Insights from co-design and public testing
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-08)

Findings from a public engagement project testing if co-designed communications can set clear expectations about health and care data use.

The National Data Guardian (NDG) commissioned this research to explore how health and care organisations can communicate effectively about the ways they use confidential patient information beyond individual care.

Evidence shows that while people generally support data being used for public benefit, such as improving services or planning care, many remain unaware of these routine uses. This lack of awareness can lead to surprise, even when people consider the use to be acceptable. The project set out to test whether clear, accessible communication materials can help people understand and expect specific uses of their data, reducing the risk of them being surprised by those uses.

Working with two ‘live’ NHS programmes: Screening Quality Assurance Service (SQAS) and local Population Health Management (PHM), we co-designed materials with members of the public and tested them through deliberative workshops, focus groups, and a large-scale survey. The research examined whether these materials could set accurate expectations about the aspects of data use people said mattered most: why it is accessed, who uses it, how it is used, and what safeguards protect it.

Findings show that well-designed materials can successfully inform people and set accurate expectations, even for complex uses of data. Most participants understood the materials and felt reassured by the safeguards described. They also valued transparency, even if they were not personally interested in reading detailed information.

This work provides practical insights for organisations on how to communicate about data use clearly and concisely, supporting the principle that there should be “no surprises” for patients and service users. It also contributes to ongoing debate about whether the legal concept of a “reasonable expectation of privacy” can help determine when health and care data can be used legitimately for public benefit without breaching confidentiality.

These registration fees do not apply to documents delivered under the Companies Act 1985 or the Companies (Northern Ireland) Order 1986. Any document delivered under these acts will be free of charge.

All statutory fees on this list have been confirmed by Parliament and are set by the following statutory fees regulations:
- The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Companies, Overseas Companies and Limited Liability Partnerships) Regulations 2012 (SI 2012/1907) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2012/1907/contents/made) as amended by The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2016 (SI 2016/621) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2016/621/contents/made)
- The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (European Economic Interest Grouping and European Public Limited-Liability Company) Regulations 2012 (SI 2012/1908) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2012/1908/contents/made)as amended by The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2016 (SI 2016/621) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2016/621/contents/made)
- The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Limited Partnerships and Newspaper Proprietors) Regulations 2009 (SI 2009/2392) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2009/2392/contents/made) as amended by The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Limited Partnerships) (Amendment) Regulations 2011 (SI 2011/319) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2011/319/contents/made) and The Registrar of Companies (Fees) (Amendment) Regulations 2016 (SI 2016/621) (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2016/621/contents/made)
Not all fees are set by these regulations. Some fees are administratively set by the fees determination under section 1063(5) of the Companies Act 2006.

This includes fees for:
- new products
- products that are in decline
- products that have a small customer base
Cost recovery principles

Companies House operates on the basis of cost recovery.

Companies House fees are linked, as required by HM Treasury guidance, to the forecast cost of providing each service and the way in which customers access them. A number of things are considered when Companies House sets its fees.

Guidance on Managing Public Money (http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20130129110402/http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/psr_mpm_index.htm) means we must set our fees to recover the full cost for each separate service - allowing for a cost of capital of 3.5%. This prohibits cross-subsidy between different services.

The Competition Act 1998 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1998/41/contents) prohibits the abuse of a dominant position in a market.

British passports to feature His Majesty’s Coat of Arms
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-10)

New British passports featuring His Majesty’s Coat of Arms to launch in December.

The first British passports bearing His Majesty King Charles III’s Coat of Arms will be issued from December as part of a revamped design.

The 4 nations of the UK will be represented through images of 4 UNESCO-protected natural landscapes – Ben Nevis, the Lake District, Three Cliffs Bay, and the Giant’s Causeway.

Incorporating the latest anti-forgery technology, it is also the most secure British passport ever produced.

This includes cutting-edge holographic and translucent features, making passports easier to verify and even harder to forge or tamper with.

This helps prevent illegal entry by people with no right to be in the UK, delivering on the government’s Plan for Change to secure Britain’s borders.

Minister for Migration and Citizenship, Mike Tapp said:

The introduction of His Majesty’s Arms, iconic landscapes, and enhanced security features marks a new era in the history of the British passport.

It also demonstrates our commitment to outstanding public service – celebrating British heritage while ensuring our passports remain among the most secure and trusted in the world for years to come.

The updated passport is the first wholly new design since 2020. It comes as His Majesty’s Passport Office continues to deliver exceptional service to British citizens. In the first 6 months of 2025 over 3.8 million passports were issued, with 99.7% of applications where no further information was required being processed within 3 weeks, above the target of 98.5%.

People should check their passport’s validity and apply in good time ahead of any planned travel. Passports issued with the Coat of Arms of Queen Elizabeth II remain valid until the expiry date.

The first modern-style British passport was introduced in 1915, with the first security feature, a watermark, added in 1972. Since then, HM Passport Office has added dozens of further security measures to ensure British passports stay ahead of criminals, including complex patterns that are hard to replicate and features only visible under UV light.

September saw increased levels of space activity with both uncontrolled re-entry and collision alerts higher than in August. However, overall risk levels were below the 12-month rolling average.

All NSpOC warning and protection services were functioning throughout the period.

Re-entry Analysis

September saw a 15% increase in the number of objects re-entering Earth’s atmosphere, monitored by NSpOC, when compared with the previous month.

Of the 39 objects that re-entered, 35 were satellites and four were rocket bodies.

October: 35, November: 47, December: 83, January: 115, February: 129, March: 85, April: 92, May: 64, June: 55, July: 52, August: 34, September: 39

In-Space Collision Avoidance

Collision risks to UK-licensed satellites were higher in September with a 58% increase when compared with August, caused by more interactions between UK licenced objects and other spacecraft or debris over the previous 30 days.

October: 3,181, November: 2,722, December: 2,142, January: 2,694, February: 2,567, March: 2,588, April: 2,620, May: 1,546, June: 1,259, July: 1,038, August: 971, September: 1,537

The number of Resident Space Objects (RSOs) reported may be subject to small adjustments over time as the way objects are tracked is refined. Figures in this report reflect the most current available data and may differ slightly from those published in previous months.

Fragmentation Analysis

There have been no new fragmentation (break-up) incidents this month.

Space weather

Space weather activity was slightly elevated in September with geomagnetic storms recorded throughout the month.

Comments

The National Space Operations Centre combines and coordinates UK civil and military space domain awareness capabilities to enable operations, promote prosperity and protect UK interests in space and on Earth from space-related threats, risks and hazards.

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 Hyperoptic 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 Hyperoptic 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
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.
