Requirement to notify as a materials facility: RPS 327
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-07)

Environment Agency regulatory position on notification as a materials facility, when receiving less than 75 tonnes of waste material per supplier.

This regulatory position statement (RPS) does not change your legal requirement to comply with the notification requirements contained in paragraph 1(2) of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 9 of the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 when you both:
- consolidate waste material into bulk quantities
- receive less than 75 tonnes of waste material per supplier per reporting period
However, the Environment Agency will not normally take enforcement action if you do not comply with paragraph 1(2) of Chapter 1 of Part 2 of Schedule 9 of the Environmental Permitting Regulations 2016 if you meet the requirements in the RPS.

The regulatory position does not apply to any other legal requirements.

Added value duty calculation where different temporary export goods are involved
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-30)

Information on added value duty calculation where different temporary export goods are involved.

The value-added method is applied for in the case of temporary export goods subject to a preferential zero duty rate; therefore, the value-added method of taxation may be applied only where:
- the temporary export goods are of UK origin
- the temporary export goods had been released for free circulation at a duty rate higher than zero
Where the value-added method of taxation is requested covering several temporary export goods, and some of these are not of UK origin, or had not been released for free circulation at duty rate higher than zero, the value-added method of taxation may nevertheless be applied by excluding these goods from the arrangements. For this purpose, the value of these temporary export goods could be added to the processing costs of the processed products.

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 UCPS Learning 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;
- and in some circumstances that special treatment may be appropriate especially for the injured or bereaved.
Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

2.1 UCPS Learning Ltd 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 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.

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.

EXPP3010 - International trade developments: what is an Export Accompanying Document (EAD)?

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.

Note: This manual is under review following Brexit and is likely to be withdrawn. If there is anything within this manual you use regularly, please email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know. Please check the other guidance available on GOV.UK from HMRC.

The Export Accompanying Document (EAD) contains data valid for the whole of the declaration and for one item of goods.

The information contained in the EAD shall be based on data derived from the export declaration; where necessary, that information will be amended by the declarant / representative and/or verified by the office of export.

The document includes a bar code of consignment information, including the MRN and declared Office of Exit (box 29), that can be scanned at the Office of Exit, effectively closing the indirect ECS movement and informing the Office of Export that the goods have left the EU. This then travels with the goods to the Office of Exit for control purposes, replacing the travelling C88 copy 3. Where there is more than one item on a declaration the EAD must be accompanied by a List of Items (LOI) form. Whilst under the UCC the requirement is to produce the MRN of the export consignment at the office of exit instead of the paper copy of the EAD, until the UCC is fully implemented, there will be a need to process paper EADs for some time.

Explanatory notes and a copy of the EAD can be found on our website at: Explanatory notes and particulars (data) for the Export Accompanying Document (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-export-accompanying-document)

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.

Defence Advanced Manufacturing Strategy
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-28)

This document describes how defence will increase the use of additive manufacturing to realise its potential benefits.

Additive manufacturing offers a range of strategic and operational benefits, such as smarter supply chains, flexibility and design freedoms. If applied appropriately, it has the potential to change the way components are designed, developed, manufactured and supplied. For the operational commander, it provides choice of supply.

This is the Ministry of Defence’s (MOD) first advanced manufacturing strategy. It emphasises improving supply chain resilience through dispersed networks of supply. Using additive manufacturing as the first step towards the wider use of advanced manufacturing techniques, the MOD seeks to benefit from an increased speed of response, shorter lead times, access to previously obsolete parts and improved environmental and operational sustainability.

The Defence Advanced Manufacturing Strategy sets out the risks to achieving the benefits described above, and outlines the activities required to mitigate them.

Who should read this publication

This strategy is aimed at professionals within the defence sector and is of value to anyone working with or within the MOD or its supply chain, to help them understand why and how we must adapt our approach to accelerate the pace of additive manufacturing adoption.

It will also be useful to the military operational community and those involved in the procurement and support of defence equipment and services, or planning and risk management of defence activities. It will outline their role in achieving significant benefits from using additive manufacturing techniques, and provide an insight to the MOD’s approach to additive manufacturing adoption to inform their own thinking and decisions.

The strategy has been developed with contributions from national experts, international allies, industrial partners, small to medium enterprises, academia and other UK government departments.
