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 Alertacall 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 Alertacall 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 Cadets
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.

CTM36841 - Particular topics: transactions in securities: clearance procedure: application
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-19)


Under ITA07/S701 (1) a person who effects or is to effect a transaction or transactions potentially subject to notice of counteraction may apply for a clearance, in which case they should provide particulars to HMRC accordingly. ITA07/S701 (2) requires HMRC to notify the person within 30 days of receiving the particulars of any further information they require if they consider the information provided insufficient. If this is not provided within 30 days of the request, or within such further time as HMRC may allow, the application will lapse: ITA07/S701 (3).

ITA07/S702 (4) provides that any notification given by HMRC, see CTM36845 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm36845), is void if particulars and any further information requested do not fully and accurately disclose all facts and considerations which are material to the application. Any tax considerations relating to the transactions are considered material and should be included in the application.

The following material should also be included where relevant:
- The full names of the parties to the transactions, including the companies and their participators together with the names of any persons who are helping to finance the transactions;
- The companies’ registration numbers, the nature of their activities and the activities of their group;
- Details of any associates or connected parties to the transactions;
- The commercial background and reasons for the transactions;
- The steps by which the transactions will be carried out, which should include full details of the share capital of the companies extending to details of rights attached to different classes of shares and securities;
- the amount and type of consideration,
- nature of consideration if not cash, and
- details of the terms and rights attached to securities and loans and provisions for repayment.
A table of share capital held before and after the transactions is helpful and can avoid further information requests, especially if it includes details of the consideration as mentioned above.

SAM121620 - Returns: individuals returns: tax equalised employees
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-13)


Many foreign nationals live and work in the UK. The majority are on assignments which last between 2-5 years while others may reside here for extended periods. The combination of residence and domicile status and patterns of work both inside and outside the UK may result in only part of their earnings being liable to income tax.

Some taxpayers remain employed by off-shore employers while they perform duties for a UK company. The UK ‘employer’ may agree to pay a certain level of net cash earnings and benefits and in addition meet the employee’s UK income tax liability. This arrangement is known as ‘tax equalisation’.

Modified PAYE and payments on account

Note: Any employee dealt with within a Modified PAYE scheme is dealt with by Specialist Personal Tax (SPT), Charities, Savings and International (CS&I) Manchester, Operations Team.

The employer of tax-equalised foreign nationals may enter into an agreement to use the ‘Modified PAYE’ scheme which is described in EP Appendix 6. HMRC has exercised powers provided by S59A(9) TMA 1970 to remove the obligation to make payments on account from all employees dealt with under a Modified PAYE scheme.

Where you identify an Appendix 6 case from the details given in ‘Any other information’ (box 19 of the ‘Finishing your tax return’ section, page TR6 on the return), you should
- Forward the case to the Specialist Personal Tax (SPT), Charities, Savings and International (CS&I) Manchester, Operations Team.
- Delete any part capture
If a case is not identified during capture, the same action will need to be taken if identified in normal day-to-day work or on receipt of a claim to adjust from the taxpayer or agent.

Further information on tax equalisation can be found in the current EP instructions.

CH228360 - How to do a compliance check: information powers: excise information notice: specifying or describing what you require
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)


This page and chapter are under review as the relevant content is also published in the guidance chapters of the Compliance Handbook (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook), within Compliance checks factsheets (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-revenue-and-customs-compliance-checks-factsheets) and in Compliance checks guidance (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/hmrc-compliance-checks-help-and-support). If you use particular pages regularly, please email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know the specific content you find useful.

Your information notice must specify as clearly as possible the information or documents you require and the period to which they relate.

You should specify identifiable documents if you can. For example “…your letter to XXX Ltd dated 25 July 2024”.

If you cannot specify, you should describe as clearly and narrowly as possible the documents. For example, “…all correspondence between you and XXX Ltd in July 2024”.

This is because the information or documents must be reasonably required for the purpose of protecting, securing, collecting or managing revenues derived from duties of excise. It is not normally reasonable to require more information or documents than are needed in order to carry out the check.

There is more guidance with examples at CH23380 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch23380).

There will be occasions when it is not possible to specify the information or documents required. In such circumstances it may be necessary to use broader descriptions, see CH23400 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch23400).

Prohibited / restricted goods

Computer processing of entries for goods subject to an import prohibition / restriction relies on the accuracy of the declared information and data held on computer. In some cases this cannot be identified by computer, detection relies on the alertness of staff to the possibility of attempted evasion. When infringement is suspected or established the entry is queried using the CHIEF system.

CAP charges

If pre-clearance customs checks are output for goods potentially liable to CAP charges, liability to CAP charges and the calculation of amounts are to be checked manually where indicated by CHIEF, in accordance with the instructions relating to such goods.

Tariff quota entries

All entries for critical quotas require security and is a condition of the entry being accepted by CHIEF. These entries are part of the download on to the NIDAC system who adjust the security when the allocation has been received from the Quota Unit in Southend.

Judicial Summary

The Upper Tribunal rejects the Secretary of State for Defence’s argument that the interpretation of item 2 of Table 9, in Schedule 3 to the Armed Forces and Reserve Forces (Compensation Scheme) Order 2011, given by the Upper Tribunal in MD v Secretary of State for Defence (AFCS) [2015] UKUT 0298 (AAC), should not be followed. MD’s interpretation was not objectionable due to unfairness nor was it liable to lead to absurd consequences. However, the appeal succeeded because the First-tier Tribunal failed to give adequate reasons for its decision. The Tribunal should have explained why it found that osteoarthritis was not a qualifying injury under item 2, as interpreted in MD.

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 Henmore Health Medical Practice 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 Henmore Health Medical Practice 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
- Discounts
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.

CTM08440 - Corporation Tax: management expenses: property business
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-17)


CTA09/S1219 (3)(b) and CTA09/PART4

Where a company with investment business also has a property business within the meaning of CTA09/S204 some part of the remunerationof employees and directors may refer to the management of the properties. That part should be deducted in the computation of the profits of the property business, and not as an expense of management under CTA09/S1219.

Officers should ensure, where there is a balance which is not deducted in the calculation of the profits of the property business, that excessive remuneration is not allowed as an expense of management (CTM08370 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08370)) and that any unpaid remuneration is dealt with in accordance with CTA09/S1249 and S1250 (CTM08470 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/company-taxation-manual/ctm08470)). If there is a company with investment business and a property business, where there could be difficulty in agreeing the amount of admissible management expenses, a clear distinction should be drawn between:
- those items which the company claims as deductions in the computation of the profits of its property business, and
- the expenses incurred in managing its investment business which can be claimed as management expenses under CTA09/S1219.
The distinction is important because:
- expenses otherwise deductible in the computation of total profits or deductible in calculating any component of total profits (which would include the calculation of the profits of a property business) cannot be deductible as management expenses under CTA09/S1219 (3)(b).

Use this licence to move live animals out of one bluetongue restricted zone into another bluetongue restricted zone.

References to ‘animals’ means ruminants (for example, cattle, sheep, goats and deer) and camelids (for example, llamas and alpacas).

If you are planning to move animals from a restricted zone to Wales, you must follow the guidance on movement licences and pre-movement tests in Wales (https://www.gov.wales/bluetongue-policy-wales).

For any movement out of a bluetongue restricted zone make sure that you:
- only use a licence if you meet all the conditions
- use the latest version of the licence as they are occasionally updated

Good Practice Sustainability Reporting Guide for 2023-24​
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-09)

This guide collates examples with reporting insights on climate, environmental & sustainability topics (including TCFD) for 2023-24 Annual Reports and Accounts​

HM Treasury sets requirements for central government annual reports – including on environmental and climate performance reporting.

The Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) recommendations identify key climate-related information for decision-making and accountability purposes. HM Treasury has mandated TCFD–aligned disclosure in central government annual reports and accounts (ARAs) with a three-year phased implementation which commenced in 2023-24.

Minimum disclosure requirements for 2023-24 are set out by the TCFD-aligned disclosure Application Guidance (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/tcfd-aligned-disclosure-application-guidance). This guide identifies and evaluates good practice1 examples in TCFD and existing climate and environmental reporting practices. This guide is aimed at those preparing sustainability-related information in ARAs and should be used to inform the development of sustainability reporting.

The good practice examples are not intended as templates. Instead, they should be used to inspire, to expand, and to improve an organisation’s own disclosures. Flexibility in reporting allows organisations to decide how best to communicate the right information to users.

[1] (#_ftnref1) Good practice and best practice have been used interchangeably in this document. Good and best practice in ARAs can take different forms. The flexibility in reporting frameworks means there is naturally some variation in, and a range of approaches to, effective disclosure.
