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 Central Management Catalogue Agency (UK) Limited 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 Central Management Catalogue Agency (UK) Limited 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
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve 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.

Guidance on how the regulatory framework applies to qualifying sub-contracts
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-30)

We are consulting on draft guidance which aims to assist the MOD and the parties to qualifying contracts to understand and apply the provisions of the regulatory framework which relate to qualifying sub-contracts.

Qualifying sub-contracts (QSCs) account for around one in six of all qualifying contracts under the regulatory framework for single source defence contracts and have a combined value of more than £6.5 billion. In response to a request from members of the SSRO’s Operational Working Group for an accessible summary of the regulatory provisions related to QSCs the SSRO has prepared the draft guidance on which it is now consulting. The draft guidance identifies and summarises the relevant provisions of the regulatory framework and provides signposting to existing applicable SSRO guidance, for example, on contract pricing and reporting.

The SSRO’s Chief Regulatory Officer, Jo Watts, said:

“The regulatory framework for single source defence contracts applies to QSCs and sub-contractors in much the same way as it does to qualifying defence contracts (QDCs) and primary contractors but with some specific modifications. The guidance on which we are consulting is designed to help the MOD, contracting authorities and sub-contractors better understand their statutory obligations and rights in relation to QSCs.”

The consultation is open for a six-week period until 5pm on 14 May 2025. Details of how to respond to the consultation are contained in the consultation document. If you would like to discuss any aspect of the consultation or the draft guidance during the consultation period, please contact David Pottruff at the SSRO (xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) or xx-xxxx-xxxx).

Following consideration of the consultation feedback we aim to publish final guidance on QSCs in June 2025.

Clinical guidelines for healthcare professionals screening women for breast cancer.

The aim of assessment is to obtain a definitive and timely diagnosis of all potential abnormalities detected during screening.

This is best achieved by using ‘triple assessment’, comprising:
- imaging (usually mammography and ultrasound)
- clinical examination
- image guided needle biopsy for histological examination if indicated
Cytology should no longer be used alone to obtain a non-operative diagnosis of breast cancer.

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 M2 Transfer 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 M2 Transfer 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
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve 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.

- your family earns £408 or less per month after tax
- you cannot claim ‘public funds’ (/government/publications/public-funds--2) (for example, benefits) – either because of your immigration status or because you do not have an immigration status

- your eVisa (a digital record of your identity and immigration status) – you can get a share code to prove your immigration status (/view-prove-immigration-status)
- your expired biometric residence permit (/biometric-residence-permits) (BRP)
You might also have a letter from the Home Office that says whether you can claim public funds.

TSEM7376 - Deceased persons: administration period: complex cases

HMRC would regard an estate as complex if:
- the tax liability for the whole of the administration period is in excess of £10,000, or
- the estate has a value at the date of death in excess of £2.5m, or
- the proceeds of assets sold by the personal representative in any one tax year exceeds £250,000 for deaths before 6 April 2016 or
- the proceeds of assets sold by the personal representative in any one year exceeds £500,000 for deaths on or after 6 April 2016.
Personal representatives of complex estates are required to register the estate using the Trust Registration service see TRSM27000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/trust-registration-service-manual/trsm27000)+.

If the estate does not fall into any of the above categories but it cannot easily be dealt with under the informal payments procedures (See TSEM7410 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/trusts-settlements-and-estates-manual/tsem7410)), advice should be obtained from PAYE and Self Assessment-HMRC Administration of Estates Cardiff who are responsible for all aspects of the period of administration for complex estates.

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.

Normally the bank will respond to an information notice by providing the required information or copies of the specified documents. You should discuss compliance with the notice if the bank so request.

You may be able to accept abstracts of financial data where this can be provided more conveniently than documents, but without prejudice to HMRC’s statutory rights.

You can normally accept copies of documents and information from banks in either electronic or paper form. Where electronic copies are provided, the bank will need to ensure that the copy can be decrypted and read by HMRC. If this proves not to be the case you should contact the bank to request a copy that can be decrypted.

You should bear in mind that these arrangements are aimed at minimising, for you and the banks concerned, any practical difficulties arising from action under, or compliance with, the legislation. Should there be disagreement in a particular case about the interpretation of these arrangements or the legislation itself, for example, whether or not a bank has complied with a formal notice, you should make a submission to (This content has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000) (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch910000).

Advice should also be sought on any difficulty arising from informal requests or formal notices issued to banks that are not covered by these arrangements.
IFM22110 - Real Estate Investment Trust : Conditions and Tests: maximum shareholding: when and how a holder of excessive rights (HoER) charge arises: CTA2010/S551
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-17)


A HoER charge is imposed only if the UK-REIT company (principal company in the case of a Group REIT) makes a distribution to or in respect of a HoER, that is not an excluded holder, as defined in CTA2010/S553 (see IFM22105 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22105)).

Situations when the charge does not apply

. The charge will not apply merely because a shareholder has a stake in the company of 10% or more. The charge only arises where a PID is paid to that shareholder

. Neither is the tax charge applied if the person beneficially entitled to the distribution is not also a HoER.

. The charge will not apply if the company has taken reasonable steps to prevent the dividend being paid to a HoER (see IFM22125 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22125) to IFM22150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22150)).

. The charge will also not apply if the HoER is an excluded holder (see IFM22105 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22105)).

Examples to illustrate when a charge might arise are set out in IFM22113 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22113).

How the HoER charge is collected

The charge is levied on the distributor (i.e. UK-REIT company or principal company in the case of a Group REIT). The company is deemed to have received a notional amount of income in the period in which any distribution is paid to a HoER, which is treated as profits of residual business: CTA10/S551.

The amount of income brought into charge is defined in CTA2010/S552 and is designed to recover as much tax from the UK-REIT as the HoER could potentially claim under a DTA. This is dealt with in more detail in IFM22120 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/investment-funds/ifm22120).

In the case of a Group REIT, the HoER rules only apply to distributions made to shareholders by the principal company. There are no restrictions on ownership of shares in subsidiary members of the group and so no HoER charge arises if a distribution is paid by a subsidiary of the Group REIT to a minority shareholder (with an interest of 10% or more in the subsidiary).
