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 Devon County Council 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 Devon County Council 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
- Reserve Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
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.
Local government reorganisation: letter to Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton council leaders

Letter to inform council leaders of the launch of the Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton local government reorganisation consultation.

​​On 19 November 2025, the Minister of State for Local Government and Homelessness, Alison McGovern MP, wrote to the leaders of Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton councils to inform them of the launch of the Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and Southampton local government reorganisation consultation.​

Gosport Borough Council and Isle of Wight council did not submit proposals for unitary local government and so the letter is not addressed to their leaders.

IPGN2250 - General principles: the transport rule
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-24)


This manual will be archived on 15 December 2025. If there is content within this manual you use regularly, email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know.

The transport rule is intended to ensure that preference is granted only to originating goods by avoiding, as far as possible, situations in which the goods can be 'manipulated' or substituted while in transit to the UK.

This objective is clearly fulfilled when originating goods have been invoiced to a customer in the UK by an exporter in the preference country of origin and have been transported directly to that customer, arriving in the same ship/aircraft container into which they were loaded in the country of origin.

However, direct transport is not always possible. UK preference legislation recognises this but lays down conditions under which goods which travel via third countries may benefit from preference. In particular, they must not be released to free circulation or be entered to home use in the country of transit. Guidance on interpreting the direct transport conditions can be found at IPGN5400 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/import-preference-guidance-notes/ipgn5400).

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to have an environmental permit for a waste operation when you treat waste filter bed media at water and waste water treatment works.

However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with this legal requirement if you meet the requirements in the RPS.

Monitoring patent applications
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-23)

Monitor the progress of a patent application through search reports, open to the public inspection files, and caveats.

Overview

You can monitor a patent application to see how it is progressing, for example before deciding to make observations on it, by:
- checking the search report
- checking the parts of the application file that are open to public inspection (OPI)
- applying for a caveat so that we tell you when something happens to the application.
Patent search reports

Search reports are available for all published UK applications.

It may include:
- documents rated as X or Y against one or more of the applicant’s claims, means that during examination we will ask the applicant to change the claims
- documents rated as A. These citations are background art, that is related reading, and are unlikely to affect the outcome of the examination and grant procedure
- none found, means that no relevant documents were available when we searched the application
- no search made, usually means that we consider the invention not patentable. We can object to the application because of this at examination, without using documents to show lack of novelty or inventiveness
*you can get free access to search reports through Espacenet (http://worldwide.espacenet.com/advancedSearch?locale=en_EP).

OPI files
- you can see reports and correspondence between us and the applicant, or their attorney, on the application file of a published application
- you can search for a patent (https://www.gov.uk/search-for-patent) to view patent files for free
Alternatively, you can check current application files by appointment at our Newport or London offices, free of charge.

Caveats

You can monitor the progress of someone else’s patent application or patent by registering a caveat (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/request-future-events-relating-to-a-patent-application-or-caveat) with us.
- a caveat is a warning, or notification, that some action has taken place on a patent application or patent. We do not tell the applicant or patent owner of the patent that a caveat is in place
You can ask us to notify you of any of the following events or actions:
- application published, or withdrawn, refused or deemed abandoned before publication
- opposition filed against an application
- application registered, or withdrawn, refused or abandoned after publication
- patent not renewed
- patent renewed or expired
- patent surrendered or revoked
- assignment application received
- patent assigned, either partially or in full
- anything else
When the action has taken place, we will write to tell you, and remove the caveat from the case.

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 Linear Building Compliance 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 Linear Building Compliance 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
- Discounts
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.
UN Human Rights Council 59: UK Statement on Myanmar
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-27)

UK Statement for the Enhanced Interactive Dialogue on the High Commissioner's report and oral update of the Special Rapporteur on Myanmar. Delivered by the UK's Human Rights Ambassador, Eleanor Sanders.

Thank you, High Commissioner, Special Rapporteur and all speakers for your update.

As you and others have noted, the devastating earthquake in Myanmar on 28 March has compounded an already dire humanitarian crisis. Over 22 million people across the country are now in need of assistance, many forced to flee across borders in search of safety.

The deliberate blocking of humanitarian access to areas outside military control during the earthquake was unacceptable. The UK provided £25 million through local delivery partners capable of overcoming access restrictions and reaching the most vulnerable.

The conflict in Rakhine State continues, driving mass displacement and humanitarian crisis, impacting all communities. Reports of human rights abuses and violations continue to emerge, including of arbitrary detention and forced recruitment. Since 2017, the UK has provided over £108 million to support communities in Rakhine with humanitarian aid.

The military’s airstrikes continue across the country targeting civilian infrastructure including schools and hospitals; this must stop. All parties must protect civilians.

Meanwhile, courageous journalists and activists continue to document human rights abuses and violations in Myanmar. The UK supports organisations like Myanmar Witness to collect independent, verifiable data, for future prosecution.

High Commissioner,

What more can the international community do to support accountability mechanisms to achieve justice for the people of Myanmar?
CH270250 - How to do a compliance check: penalties for failure to comply with notices: penalty for disclosing a notice to the taxpayer it relates to
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)


This page and chapter are under review as the relevant content is also published in the technical 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.

If the Tribunal agrees to disapply the requirement to provide a copy of a third party notice or Financial Institution Notice (FIN) to the taxpayer, HMRC can include a requirement in the notice that the recipient is not to disclose the notice, or anything relating to it, to either the taxpayer it relates to, or any other person, except for a purpose relating to compliance with the notice.

When HMRC includes this requirement in the notice, there is a fixed penalty of £1000 for any person who discloses the notice, or anything relating to it, to either the taxpayer it relates to, or any other person, except for a purpose relating to compliance with the notice.

The third party (or Financial Institution) has the right of appeal if a penalty is charged, see CH270600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch270600).

Charging a penalty

A penalty notice must be authorised by an authorising officer, see CH282070 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch282070). Under no circumstances is self-authorisation allowed.

The penalty charge will be created by the National Penalties Processing System (NPPS), see CH270500 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch270500) for details of how to create a charge.

When you assess the penalty, you should send the person a notice of assessment (with a copy to the agent if there is one). The penalty notice template is available in SEES Forms and Letters (IIP28).
