VATRESNI3800 - How the scheme works: Invoicing under the direct reclaim system
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)


Retailers operating the direct reclaim system must comply with legal invoicing requirements set down in the VAT Regulations 1995. Under the system, the retailer “sells” the goods to the refund company at the point of sale. The retailer accounts for output tax on this supply to the refund company who reclaim the input tax. The retailer must produce an acceptable “VAT invoice” to provide evidence of the supply. If the retailer does not issue a separate VAT invoice for this transaction a copy of the refund company’s approved version of the VAT 407(NI) can be used but it is essential that it includes specific details required by law. The details required depend on the value of the consideration for the supply. Regulation 14 of the VAT Regulations 1995 (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1995/2518/regulation/14) lists the particulars which must be included. Where the consideration exceeds £250, the invoice or VAT 407(NI) must contain all the particulars listed. The VAT 407(NI) form does contain most of the particulars detailed in regulation 14 but there are a couple of notable omissions, for each description:
- the taxable amount excluding VAT; and
- the unit price.
Where the consideration for a supply is £250 or more, retailers may (provided the customer agrees) issue a modified VAT invoice showing the VAT inclusive amount instead of the VAT exclusive values. However, all other details as set out in regulation 14(1), such as the unit price, must be included. Information that must be shown is contained in Notice 700 in the section headed ‘VAT invoices: general rules’. We have no discretion to vary the invoicing requirements which originate in EU law. If these additional details are not included on the VAT 407(NI) or separate invoice, the retailer may be liable to a civil penalty under section69 (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1994/23/section/69) of the VAT Act 1994. However, regulation 16 (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/1995/2518/regulation/16) allows for simplified invoices to be issued where the consideration does not exceed £250.

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 MYB Business Development 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 MYB Business Development 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:

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.

Source: gov.uk (2025-10-01)

Our Recyclability Assessment Methodology (RAM) roadmap, showing planned developments from 2025 to 2030.

PackUK is pleased to announce the publication of the Recyclability Assessment Methodology (RAM) 2025-2030 roadmap (https://gov.uk/government/publications/packuk-recyclability-assessment-methodology-ram-roadmap-2025-to-2030).

The roadmap provides a strategic overview of RAM development, and the intended material reviews over the next five years. PackUK has worked closely with the RAM Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Guest TAC Members on the roadmap’s development, responding directly to industry feedback and demonstrating our continued commitment to a collaborative and transparent approach to RAM development.

The roadmap contains all information needed for industry, including regular events like quarterly TAC meetings, annual four nations policy alignment reviews, annual publications of the RAM, and relevant pEPR policy deadlines. The roadmap additionally includes one-off deep dives into different material types to assess how RAM can better support those packaging materials and consider industry innovation in future updates.

These deep dives are in addition to the annual update cycle, ensuring the RAM continues to evolve to reflect industry trends, whilst also ensuring fuller-scale reviews of each material category. All timings in the roadmap are subject to change.

The RAM will undergo continuous improvement over the coming years, addressing stakeholder queries, developments, and issues as they are received, integrating as many reasonable changes as possible into annual RAM updates.

If you have any RAM related queries, please contact xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx).
Understanding grading: toolkit for schools and colleges
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-30)

Useful information on how qualifications are graded, produced with headteachers and teachers in mind but helpful for anyone with an interest in learning more.

Resources for explaining qualification grading

This grading toolkit is designed for headteachers and teachers to effectively explain how GCSE and A level qualifications are graded. These resources will also help parents, students, and anyone interested in understanding the examination and assessment process in England.

Headteachers and teachers play an important role in helping students and parents to understand how grading works, from exam marking to the setting of grade boundaries. But even if you understand, it can still be a hard process to explain to someone else.

Key topics covered in the grading toolkit

Our toolkit provides clear explanations and resources addressing common questions about:

how exam papers are marked

how grade boundaries are set

how the quality of a student’s work in their exams determines the grade they get

Video resources

GCSE and A level grading explained

Our video guide How GCSE and A level grading works (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBx56qjS338) provides a visual explanation of the entire grading process, including:
- what happens to papers after exams are taken
- how exam papers are marked to ensure they are fair
- how grade boundaries are set
- why grade boundaries vary, while standards are maintained
Expert discussion on grading standards

We’ve partnered with the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) to record a conversation between Sir Ian Bauckham CBE, Chief Regulator, and Pepe Di’Iasio, ASCL General Secretary (https://vimeo.com/1072173494?share=copy), discussing marking, grading standards, and Ofqual’s role in maintaining qualification standards across England.

National reference test explained

For those interested in how we monitor standards over time, our video The National Reference Test explained (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZjnKjZ0RnCM) explains the importance of this annual assessment taken by a representative sample of Year 11 students across England.

UK and foreign vessels landings by UK port and UK vessel landings abroad: provisional data

Highlights
- The total quantity of landings by UK vessels (tonnes) decreased in February 2025 compared to 2024, down 7%. The value of landings in February 2025 (£56.7m) decreased compared to 2024 down by 16%.
- Landings in February 2025 comprised mostly of Pelagic species (68%). This was driven by high landings of Blue Whiting which is usually a highly targeted fishery between February and April each year. Demersal species comprised the majority of the value landed (39%) due to Demersal species typically fetching a much higher price per tonne compared to Pelagic species.

Traffic signs working drawings: TSRGD 2016 schedule 12
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-28)

Directional traffic signs.

The Traffic Signs Regulations and General Directions (TSRGD) 2016 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2016/362/contents/made) prescribes the design and condition of use for traffic signs on or near roads in England, Scotland and Wales.

Schedule 12 of the TSRGD 2016 covers directional signs.

The ‘building block’ approach is used for most directional signs. The majority of signs are now prescribed as sign elements rather than complete signs with individual diagram numbers. This introduces greater design flexibility and reduces the need for permitted variants.

The title of each working drawing reflects the respective Schedule, Part and Item in TSRGD 2016. The part of the title in parentheses refers to the TSRGD 2002 working drawing that it has replaced.

The consultation response was published on 23 January 2025, as part of the release of Below Average Resources statistics for financial year 2022 to 2023 (https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/announcements/below-average-resources-for-financial-year-2022-to-2023).

This is a release of official statistics in development and a statistical consultation on developing new additional poverty statistics based on the Social Metrics Commission (SMC) approach to poverty measurement.

The SMC approach provides a more expansive view of available resources (both savings and inescapable costs) than the income measurement adopted under the existing Households Below Average Income (HBAI) publication (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/households-below-average-income-hbai--2), and also proposes some methodological changes.

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.
