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 b4 Secure 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;

Source: gov.uk (2025-07-01)

U6 exemption allows you to import sludge from one waste water treatment plant to another to reseed the biological process.

There’s a charge for most waste exemptions

This exemption is in band 3. Read waste exemption charges (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/waste-exemptions-how-to-choose-register-and-pay/waste-exemption-charges) to find out what the charges and charging bands are.

Activity you can carry out

This can involve using sludge from one waste water treatment plant to re-seed the biological process (for example, filter bed) at another waste water treatment plant.

Activity you cannot carry out

You cannot store, treat or use septic tank or cesspool sludge under this exemption.

Type of waste you can use

Amount of waste you can use

You can store or use up to 1,000 cubic metres at any one time at the receiving waste water treatment plant.

Key conditions

You should not use any more waste than you need to or this will be considered as waste disposal and will not be exempt.

Covid repayment window opens
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-11)

Those who still owe Covid scheme money to the public purse have been given a time-limited opportunity to pay it back before tougher sanctions apply.

- New voluntary repayment scheme gives individuals and businesses until December 2025 to return pandemic scheme money, no questions asked.
- Use it or lose it opportunity comes ahead of tougher sanctions to follow for those who don’t come forward.
- Move comes as government continues to do everything in its power to recoup money lost to Covid fraud.
A voluntary repayment scheme (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/make-a-voluntary-repayment-of-covid-19-funding), launched today (12 September), will provide Covid scheme recipients with a ‘no questions asked’ window to repay outstanding money they were not entitled to or did not need.

The move comes as the government continues to do everything in its power to recoup money lost to Covid fraud.

Individuals who don’t take this last chance to come forward and repay any outstanding money could face prosecution when the government receives additional investigatory powers next year.

A Covid fraud reporting website (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/report-covid-19-fraud) is also being launched to allow members of the public to report suspected fraud.

Covid Counter-Fraud Commissioner Tom Hayhoe said:

Our message to those who still owe Covid era money is simple – pay now, clear your conscience, or face the consequences.

This money belongs in communities, the NHS, police and armed forces. Those who don’t take up this straightforward offer and have knowingly, wrongly claimed tax-payer-funded help could face prosecution, disqualification, or prison.

The digital trail is forever, so the time to settle is now - before new investigatory powers and tougher rules come into force.

All Covid schemes, including loans, grants, social security and tax benefits fall under the voluntary repayment scheme.

Over £10 billion was lost to pandemic fraud, flawed contracts and waste under the previous government’s mismanagement of pandemic era procurement and schemes. £1.54 billion has already been recovered through existing efforts.

The Covid Counter-Fraud Commissioner will provide a full update in a final report to the Chancellor at the conclusion of his term in December 2025.

Post-assessment processes

Applicants can still expect their assessment results approximately three weeks after they take their assessment. For most applications we will make a decision on their application for registration shortly after the results are available.

If an applicant does not pass the assessment and is refused registration, they can make a new application for registration. Any re-application must include what further training has been completed to ensure the applicant is now in a better position to pass the assessment. Applications resubmitted without details of further training will be refused. The IAA will not re-test an adviser within 4 weeks of their last registration decision.

Support for Level 1 candidates

To help support Level 1 applicants we have a number of Level 1 sample papers available. We encourage all applicants to use these practice papers in advance of the exams before applying for registration. This will help applicants understand if they are ready to sit the Level 1 assessment.

PM meeting with Prime Minister Carney of Canada: 15 June 2025

The Prime Minister met the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in Ottawa this afternoon.

The Prime Minister met the Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in Ottawa this afternoon.

They began by discussing the grave situation in the Middle East, agreeing that the upcoming G7 Summit presented an opportunity to come together with partners in pursuit of de-escalation.

Turning to the UK-Canada relationship - they had a warm and productive conversation, agreeing that as two like-minded leaders there is huge potential to drive forward our partnership for the benefit of British and Canadian people.

Prime Minister Carney confirmed that Canada would ratify the UK’s accession to the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), seeking to introduce legislation to their parliament in the autumn. This will bring huge benefits to UK businesses by lowering tariffs when buying from and selling to Canada.

They also agreed to set up a joint taskforce to turbocharge progress on other areas of mutual benefit, including technology and artificial intelligence – in support of shared growth and our national security. The taskforce will also look to make progress on the wider UK-Canada Free Trade Agreement.

The Prime Minister said that the world has changed when it comes to trade and the economy, so he wants teams to go as far and as fast as possible, because it is in all of our interests to lower trade barriers with our closest partners.

Moving on to defence and security, the leaders agreed that there is no doubt that everyone needs to step up at such a volatile time for the world. The Prime Minister reiterated that all NATO allies must come together to advance our collective security in the coming years.

They ended on their enduring support for Ukraine, and Prime Minister Carney thanked the Prime Minister for his invaluable leadership on the Coalition of the Willing.

They looked forward to discussing this further at the G7 Summit in the coming days.
