Smarter Regulation: Fire safety of domestic upholstered furniture
Source: gov.uk (2025-01-22)

We are seeking views on a proposed new approach to the fire safety of domestic upholstered furniture and furnishings.

The Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988 were introduced to protect consumers from injury and death resulting from highly flammable upholstered furniture. Important changes are required to take account of modern day hazards and risks. This consultation seeks views from a wide range of stakeholders on the proposed new approach to the fire safety of domestic upholstered furniture, in particular:
- the scope of the regulations
- the essential safety requirements
- the conformity assessment procedure
- the labelling requirements
- the technical file requirements
- the proposed timescales for the implementation of and transition to the new regulations
- measures to encourage and enable a reduction in the use of chemical flame retardants
This new approach is based on safety outcomes that will be underpinned by a set of essential safety requirements which all products in scope of the regulations must meet in order to be placed on the market. It will maintain and improve fire safety for consumers by better representing the safety of the product as it appears in their homes, while facilitating manufacturing innovation and a reduction in the use of chemical flame retardants.

The consultation includes:
- a consultation document setting out the rationale for the new approach and the proposals
- an impact assessment setting out the estimated costs and benefits of the new approach
- a set of draft regulations to illustrate the new approach in legislative form
The evidence base supporting the consultation includes a new independent research report (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/fire-risks-of-upholstered-products) that assesses the fire risks of upholstered products.

The proposed policy remains subject to review and may change as a result of the evidence and views provided by stakeholders in response to this consultation.

Code of practice for the international recruitment of health and social care personnel
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-27)

Sets out the principles and best practice benchmarks health and social care employers and recruitment agencies must follow to ensure effective, ethical international recruitment.

The code of practice promotes high standards of ethical practice in the international recruitment and employment of health and social care personnel. It also sets out the UK’s approach to supporting health and social care systems and workforce, alongside safeguards to prevent active recruitment from countries facing the most critical shortages in healthcare professionals needed to achieve universal health coverage.

While the code of practice is UK policy, specific codes exist for Northern Ireland and Scotland to reflect the different organisational structures. Wales follows England’s code. It is aimed at all health or social care organisations or recruitment agencies undertaking international recruitment.

It is based on the principles set out in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Code of Practice on the International Recruitment of Health Personnel (https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/who-global-code-of-practice-on-the-international-recruitment-of-health-personnel). It refers to the WHO Health Workforce Support and Safeguards List (https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/9789240069787) as the red list of countries that must not be actively targeted by health or social care recruiters unless there is a government-to-government agreement in place to allow managed recruitment on the terms of the agreement.

See also the collection page on government-to-government agreements on health and social care workforce recruitment (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/government-to-government-agreements-on-health-and-social-care-workforce-recruitment) for details of agreements between the UK and partner countries. The collection page will be updated regularly as new government-to-government agreements are signed. It is recommended that employers, contracting bodies and recruitment agencies regularly check the collection page for updates.

DT1954 - Non-residents: UK income: Small profits rate and marginal relief
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-24)


A permanent establishment of a foreign company in the United Kingdom is not resident in the United Kingdom. Therefore, it would not be entitled to the small profits rate of corporation tax or marginal relief since CTA10/s18A only provides that companies resident in the United Kingdom are entitled to the small profits rate. The non- discrimination Article however requires that the taxation of a permanent establishment in the United Kingdom of an enterprise of a resident of the agreement country is not to be less favourably levied than the taxation of a United Kingdom enterprise carrying on the same activities. A United Kingdom enterprise is one which, in the case of a company, is carried on by a company resident in the United Kingdom and it is with such an enterprise that the permanent establishment of the foreign enterprise has to be compared. This is different for a non-UK resident company who is subject to UK tax for a reason other than having a permanent establishment, as the non-UK resident company is not 'in the same circumstance' as the UK resident company precisely because it is not tax resident in the UK. If appropriate, the permanent establishment of the foreign enterprise will be entitled to the small profits rate or marginal relief. In determining whether the small profits rate or marginal relief applies, the income and the profits of the company should include not only the income and profits of the permanent establishment, but also the income and profits of the company as a whole including other branches whether in the United Kingdom or elsewhere. The number of any associated companies, wherever resident, should also be taken into account (Section 18E CTA 2010).

Climate change and mental health report (pdf) (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/climate-change-and-mental-health-report)

Adaptations to build mental resilience

The mental wellbeing of communities can be impacted by extreme weather events, and eco-anxiety worsened by climate change. There is some limited evidence that several structural or environmental adaptations can be made to help build resilience to the mental impacts of extreme weather events.

Structural adaptations:

home energy upgrades - for example, insulation and heating improvements in low-income housing can improve indoor comfort, reduce stress, and enhance mental health and quality of life

flood prevention infrastructure - for example barriers and planned shelters can help reduce psychological distress by improving safety and preparedness

early warning systems - for extreme weather events like floods, have been shown to reduce mental health impacts when warnings are well-communicated and timely

Environmental adaptations:

nature prescribing - for example, walking or gardening can reduce stress and improve social connection

citizen science - for example, getting involved in biodiversity monitoring can increase self-efficacy and the connection with nature, and protect mental health

green infrastructure - for example, providing shaded areas and parks can promote physical activity, social cohesion, and emotional wellbeing

Evidence limitations

The climate change and mental health report (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/climate-change-and-mental-health-report) outlines the limitations of the evidence on structural and environmental interventions including:

the limited number of UK studies - most studies are from Australia and Canada

mental health benefits are not measured - mental health is often not the main topic of climate intervention studies

cost-effectiveness - data is lacking making it difficult to justify investment in interventions

equity and access - issues for specific groups such as deprived or rural communities, have not been investigated

long-term impacts are not assessed - or how interventions work across different levels of climate warming

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 Sheffield Wednesday Football Club 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 Sheffield Wednesday Football Club 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:

- Flexible Leave For Spouses

Plan-making reforms: consultation on implementation
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-27)

A consultation on our proposals to make local plans (and minerals and waste plans) simpler, faster to prepare, and more accessible.

Our vision is for local plans (and minerals and waste plans) to be simpler to understand and use, and positively shaped by the views of communities about how their area should evolve.

We want them to clearly show what is planned in a local area – so that communities and other users of the plan can engage with them more easily, especially while they are being drawn up. We want them to be prepared more quickly and updated more frequently to ensure more authorities have up-to-date plans that reflect local needs. And we want them to make the best use of new digital technology, so that people can get involved without having to go through hundreds of pages of documents at council offices and to drive improved productivity and efficiency in the plan-making process.

Through this consultation we are asking for your views on our proposals to implement the parts of the Levelling Up and Regeneration Bill which relate to plan-making, to make plans simpler, faster to prepare and more accessible.

Rapid deployment cells (RDCs) are accommodation units that are built offsite and can be deployed on existing prison grounds. They provide a quicker deployment route and can utilise smaller parcels of land than alternative accommodation options such as houseblocks.

A process evaluation was undertaken to explore how the programme was delivered and any perceived early outcomes on prisoners and staff. It also sought to identify parts of the process and implementation that worked well, and any lessons learnt.

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 Cedar Health and Wellbeing 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 Cedar Health and Wellbeing 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:
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Cadets
- Armed Forces Day
- Reserve Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
We also pledge the following:

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.
