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 Entrust Music and Performing Arts 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 Entrust Music and Performing Arts 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

- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- 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.

When a trader is, or should be, registered under the VAT Act 1994, Schedule 1, paragraph 1, their EDR is a matter of fact. A request to amend should be considered on the basis of their taxable turnover and when it exceeded the registration threshold.

If there is sufficient evidence to confirm that the threshold was exceeded at an earlier date, you should amend.

A rejected request in these circumstances carries a right of appeal as the EDR is, or would be, changed as per the provisions of Schedule 1.

Solar on car parks and electric vehicle charging
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-26)

We're seeking views on a proposal to mandate the installation of solar canopies on new outdoor car parks, subject to certain exemptions, as well as views around current planning policy relating to EV charging infrastructure.

The government welcomes input and detailed evidence from stakeholders to better understand the potential for solar canopy installation on new outdoor car parks, as well as concerns or views they may have around existing planning policy and Permitted Development Rights (PDRs) in relation to electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure. This includes links to solar canopies and energy storage systems.

Section 1: solar canopies

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) is seeking evidence and feedback on a proposal to mandate the introduction of solar canopies on new outdoor car parks and explore opportunities for deployment on existing car parks, above a certain size; this includes car parks in both public and private ownership. We are considering, subject to this call for evidence, whether multi-storey car parks and residential car parks should be in scope. We also welcome evidence and feedback on other ways that government action could increase the deployment of solar canopies on outdoor car parks and views on what further changes can be made to the planning and permitting regime when installing electric vehicle charge points.

Section 2: electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure and planning

This section focuses on electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, planning and the UK’s wider energy security and net-zero commitments. As transport remains the largest emitting sector of greenhouse gases, decarbonising road transport through EV adoption is critical, requiring a substantial expansion of EV charging infrastructure.

The Clean Power Action Plan outlines the importance of adopting clean power technologies such as electric vehicles (EVs) to support the transition away from the use of fossil fuels. From 2030 onwards, further emissions reductions from clean power will come indirectly through displacing fossil fuel use in other sectors, such as transport. As with solar energy, the charging infrastructure for EVs needs to be deployed rapidly and at scale.

Record single flight of illegal migrants returned under new deal
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-18)

The number of illegal migrants returned under the UK-France deal has reached 42 after 16 were returned to France in largest group flight yet.

A record number of 16 illegal migrants have been returned to France this week in the largest group flight yet, bringing the total number of returns to 42.

The Home Secretary has pledged to “scale up removals to France” in a stark warning to those attempting to enter the country illegally.

The previous government’s Rwanda policy consumed years of effort and hundreds of millions in public funds yet removed only 4 people. Within weeks of our new arrangement with France, the government has successfully removed 42 illegal migrants.

The UK-France treaty allows the rapid detention and removal of individuals who enter illegally via small boats.

Further flights to France under this pilot scheme are scheduled to take place over the coming days and weeks, as the government looks to work with the French government to scale up the scheme.

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood said:

For many years, illegal migrants entered our country with no consequence.

This is the largest return flight under our historic deal with the French. And it sends a warning to those considering entering this country illegally: if you come here by small boat, you can be sent back.

This is just the beginning – I will scale up these removals to France. And I will do whatever it takes to secure our borders.

This comes after the UK government sent border security officers to the Balkans last week to disrupt illegal migration routes and explore new enforcement techniques that could see UK law enforcement and border security operations alongside Frontex in the Western Balkans to track down and arrest people smugglers.

This follows the UK National Crime Agency leading 350 disruptions of immigration crime networks over the last year – its highest level on record and a 40% increase on the previous 12 months.

The UK government continues to work with France to operate a tightly controlled legal route for an equal number of eligible individuals to come to the UK, subject to rigorous security checks. This legal pathway reflects the strength of the UK-France relationship.

This pilot scheme will continue to be ramped up, with both countries having committed to continuously improving the process of this innovative approach.

This continued work as part of the government’s Plan for Change demonstrates the comprehensive approach to securing borders through international co-operation, operational enforcement, and decisive action against criminal networks facilitating illegal migration.

Fishing quota transfers between the UK and the EU.

The UK and the EU have agreed to conduct in-year fishing quota transfers. This is set out in the written record of fisheries consultations between the UK and the EU (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/fisheries-consultations-between-the-uk-and-the-eu-for-2025).

Quota transfers will take place on a periodic basis. Your Fisheries Administration (FA) will confirm the dates for each round of transfers.

Guidance on the impact of the new EU scheme for non-agricultural geographical indications (NAGIs) applying in Northern Ireland (NI).

The Intellectual Property Office (IPO) will administer the scheme in NI. We will update this page when we can accept applications

The EU recently introduced a scheme, under Regulation (EU) 2023/2411 (https://eur-lex.europa.eu/eli/reg/2023/2411/oj/eng), that protects NAGIs for craft and industrial products across Member States. This scheme now applies in NI under the Windsor Framework. NAGIs protected under this EU scheme will be enforced in NI.

A NAGI protects the name of a product which has a strong link to a specific geographical area. Under the EU scheme, at least one of the production steps of the product must take place in that area. A NAGI is not owned by an individual business. Anyone can use the protected name if they make the product according to the product specification (this details the specific characteristics and methods of production of the product).

CG73765 - Non-Resident Capital Gains Tax (NRCGT)–Disposals on or after 6 April 2015 to 5 April 2019:Individuals: Special rules, & computation: Existing CGT provisions for individuals chargeable to Non-resident CGT: Temporary non-residents under TCGA92/S10A & 10AA*
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-07)


TCGA92/S10A* is an anti-avoidance provision that applies to individuals who realise capital gains during a period of temporary absence from the UK.

A non-resident taxpayer disposing of UK residential property might in some circumstances potentially face double taxation - under the new non-resident CGT charge at the time of disposal, and again under S10A* on their return to the UK. S10A* was amended to ensure that a second charge does not arise on chargeable non-resident CGT gains.

If the year of departure was 2012-13 or earlier see CG26310 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg26310).

If the year of departure was 2013-14 or later see CG26810 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg26810).

*These sections were re-written for disposals from 6 April 2019 see CG10150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-gains-manual/cg10150)
