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 Ogletree Deakins International LLP 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 Ogletree Deakins International LLP 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

Joint Doctrine Publication 0-01.1 provides the Defence community with endorsed UK joint definitions.

Terminology forms a foundation for common understanding, and therefore builds interoperability. The 2012 direction by Chief of the Defence Staff and Permanent Under Secretary to ‘put NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) at the heart of Defence’, has also been adhered to for terminology. Defence personnel should use agreed terminology whenever possible in their work. Aligning with NATO, there is a hierarchy of terms and definitions we should use, which is:

• Concise Oxford English Dictionary;

• NATOTerm; and then

• Joint Doctrine Publication (JDP) 0-01.1, UK Terminology Supplement to NATOTerm.

Announcement of Preliminary Market Engagement Exercise for the Digital Gilt Instrument (DIGIT) Pilot
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-18)

HM Treasury and the DMO are seeking views from industry to inform the development and delivery of the pilot DIGIT issuance.

Today (18 March), the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced details of the launch of the procurement process for the pilot Digital Gilt Instrument (DIGIT) issuance.

HMT has published additional information, engagement questions and has issued a Preliminary Market Engagement Notice through the contract finder service. This provides further information on the scope of the DIGIT pilot and seeks views from potential suppliers including the financial services sector, to inform the development and delivery of DIGIT.

In November 2024, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced at Mansion House (https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/mansion-house-2024-speech) the launch of a pilot Digital Gilt Instrument (DIGIT) issuance, leveraging cutting-edge distributed ledger technology (DLT). This announcement was followed by a Written Statement to Parliament (https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2024-11-18/hcws228), outlining further details of the issuance and highlighting the Government’s commitment to engaging with the sector in 2025.

Today’s announcement represents the first step of the Government’s work with the sector towards achieving a successful DIGIT issuance. This exercise will allow the Government to understand the current landscape of services available, or in development, in the UK, as well as to gain insight into what potential investors want to see from a DIGIT issuance to help inform HMT’s commercial strategy.

The DIGIT Pilot

DIGIT will support the Government’s commitment to maintain the UK as a world-leading and global financial centre. As other financial hubs explore DLT, the potential for significant growth in this area is clear. By launching now, the Government is positioning the UK financial services sector to take advantage of this opportunity.

The pilot is seeking to:
- Enable the Government to explore how DLT can be applied to UK sovereign debt issuance processes.
- Catalyse the development of UK based DLT infrastructure and the adoption of DLT across UK financial markets.
The pilot’s initial design features have been set in order to meet these aims and include DIGIT being digitally native, short-dated, issued on a platform operating within the Digital Securities Sandbox (DSS), (https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/financial-stability/digital-securities-sandbox) and independent of the Government’s main debt management programme.

Next Steps

HMT and the DMO are seeking responses to the questions in the Preliminary Market Engagement Notice by 11.59pm on 13 April 2025.

Customs authorisation
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-30)

Provides information on what customs authorisations are.

Customs authorisations offer benefits to authorisation holders such as reducing the cost of moving goods across borders, facilitating alternative customs processes or approving locations used for customs activity. The authorisation holder must show that they meet certain criteria and conditions of authorisation through an application process before they are authorised.

A full customs authorisation is granted to traders, intermediaries or anyone involved in an international supply chain who have been through this process and which has confirmed they will manage their customs obligations in line with the requirements of the authorisation they applied for.

Goods can be moved across borders without the use of customs authorisations or special procedures. But without these, a full customs special procedure and a full customs declaration will need to be made at the border and any customs duties or import VAT must also be paid at the border.

Mine shaft collapse secured in Bishop Auckland
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-14)

The Mining Remediation Authority acts quickly to protect people and the environment after hole appears overnight in farmer's field in County Durham.

On 5 February, our Public Safety and Subsidence team was made aware of the collapse in a farmer’s field and over a public bridleway in the Bishop Auckland area.

The collapse, measuring 7 metres in diameter and up to 50 metres deep, was quickly secured and planning work to fill it began immediately.

From our mining archives of more than 120,000 mine abandonment plans, we were able to establish that the shaft was recorded on Ordnance Survey maps as far back as 1884, known simply as Old Shaft.

Ordnance Survey map showing the location of Old Shaft.

Works to secure the shaft began this week, with more than 100 tonnes of aggregate and other material expected to be needed to fill the shaft and help determine its true depth.

The site will then be secured and and monitored to ensure there are no further issues.

Project manager Jordan Owens said:

It was essential that we acted quickly to make this collapse safe as it was affecting a public bridleway and posed a risk to the public.

The scale of the collapse was certainly a surprise. It is unusual to see a shaft of this scale and that made it even more important to make the area safe as a priority.

We are thankful to the landowner for his cooperation during this work.

This is one of more than 600 incidents that our Public Safety and Subsidence team responds to every year.

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 Dabbawal 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 Dabbawal 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
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.

Product information

Hazard

The product has been identified as presenting a serious risk of injuries or falling from a height as it is classed as Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and was not supplied with the required compliance documentation or markings to demonstrate that it has been adequately conformity assessed. Mandatory third-party conformity assessment by a body authorised for PPE is required by the relevant regulations for those products which protect against more serious risks. The absence of such independent assessment for such a product may increase the risk to the consumer that the product may not perform as expected when relied upon across a wide range of uses. Additionally, there is no safety information supplied with the product.

The product does not meet the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 on personal protective equipment or the Personal Protective Equipment (Enforcement) Regulations 2018.

Corrective action

The import has been rejected at the border and destroyed.

The listing has been removed by the online marketplace (Amazon).

CTM40530 - Particular bodies: registered societies: payment of share and loan interest and other payments: treatment of recipient
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-17)


A member may be in receipt of various payments from a registered society, all of which are paid gross by the society.

Interest

A society may pay interest in respect of any mortgage, loan, loan stock or deposit. This is a receipt of gross interest in the hands of the recipient and is part of their total income. It should either be coded out through the PAYE tax code or included on a tax return as untaxed income, as appropriate.

Any interest, dividend, bonus or other sum payable to a shareholder of such a society by reference to the amount of the shareholder's holding in the share capital of the society is also treated as a receipt of gross interest in the hands of the recipient (ITTOIA05/S379) and the member is responsible for ensuring that tax is paid on it as above.

Some members who have low incomes will have no tax to pay.

Other payments

A registered society, in particular a co-operative society, may also pay a discount, bonus, dividend or rebate to its members based on the level of their transactions with the society. Whether this is taxable in the hands of the member depends on the nature of the transaction from which the dividend originates and the nature of the relationship between the member and the society.

For example, in a retail co-operative where the member is simply buying retail goods from the company any dividend based on the amount of purchases made is effectively a discount on the purchase price of the goods and as such is not taxable income in the hands of the member.

However, where the dividend is based on trade transactions with a member, for example in an agricultural co-operative where a farmer member is supplying vegetables or other produce to the co-operative the dividend will be a trading receipt of the member and should be included in trading income accordingly.
