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 Dunster House 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 Dunster House 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:
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- UK Service Spouses And Partners
- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists
- UK Cadets
- Armed 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.

Global Challenges Research Fund: ODA capacity and benefits study
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-08)

A study of the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF) evaluation to assess the UK’s capacity to deliver cutting-edge research and innovation for development.

The GCRF supports UK and international researchers and innovators in taking on key issues affecting developing countries through:
- challenge-led multidisciplinary research
- strengthening capability for research, innovation and knowledge exchange
- providing an agile response to emergencies
GCRF is part of the UK’s official development assistance (ODA) (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/official-development-assistance-oda--2).

The GCRF evaluation

The evaluation of GCRF assesses how the Fund is contributing to its objectives and impact – it has 3 stages and is now in Stage 2.

This study is one of 3 modules in Stage 2 and it seeks to assess the benefits of GCRF to UK research and innovation (R&I) systems. More specifically, this study aims to assess the extent to which GCRF has contributed to the UK’s capacity to deliver cutting-edge R&I for development.

This report was produced in 2024. The Global Challenges Research Fund (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/global-challenges-research-fund) has now closed. Since then, the government has taken the difficult decision to temporarily reduce ODA to the equivalent of 0.3% of gross national income (GNI) by 2027 to fund an increase in defence spending. The government remains committed to international development and to returning ODA to 0.7% of GNI when fiscal conditions allow.

Source: gov.uk (2025-04-09)

The document includes a statement of intent and consultation on proposals to overhaul the current local audit system in England.

This strategy commits to a series of measures to fix the broken local audit system, including:
- a local audit vision with 8 core principles
- the establishment of a statutory and independent Local Audit Office (LAO), with 5 strategic responsibilities - coordinating the system, contract management, ownership of the Code of Audit Practice, quality oversight and reporting
- mandating audit committees
The government is also consulting on a number of specific proposals as part of this strategy, including:
- potential additional functions of the new LAO
- simplifying financial reporting requirements to ensure they are proportionate
- improvements to enhance capacity and capability in the local audit sector, such as the introduction of public provision
- strengthening the relationship between local bodies and their auditor
- reforming the audit regime
Local government is a devolved matter. This strategy applies to England only.

Judicial Summary

This decision is about the basis on which the person who has been attacked by a dog may (or may not) qualify for an award under the Criminal Injuries Compensation Scheme 2012.

To be eligible for an award under the 2012 Scheme the person has to have sustained “a criminal injury which is directly attributable to their being a direct victim of a crime of violence”. A “crime of violence” is defined (for the first time) in the 2012 Scheme as being a crime which involves, inter alia, a physical attack or any other attack or omission of a violent nature which causes physical injury to a person. However, such an act or omission will not amount to a crime of violence unless it is done either intentionally or recklessly. But even if the dog attack does qualify on this basis as a crime of violence, it will not be considered to have been a crime of violence under the 2012 Scheme if the injury resulted from an animal attack, unless the animal was used with intent to cause injury to a person.

This decision decides, first, that the First-tier Tribunal (FTT) erred in law in deciding that a crime under section 3(1) of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 could constitute a crime of violence under the 2012 Scheme. This is because section 3(1) of the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991 has created an offence of strict liability and as such does not involve any act (or omission) done either intentionally or recklessly. Secondly, even if the relevant crime could have been one committed under section 47 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861 (which the FTT did not address), the FTT further erred in law in failing to provide an adequate explanation on the evidence as to why the dog had been used with intent to cause injury to a person.

Road safety statistics: STATS19 review update and future development roadmap
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-25)

An update on progress in implementation of the latest review of STATS19, conducted in 2018, including the department's future roadmap for road safety data and statistics.

The department’s published data and statistics on road collisions and casualties are based on data reported to the police via the data collection system known as STATS19.

STATS19 is periodically reviewed to ensure that it remains fit for purpose, addressing emerging needs while minimising burdens on reporting police officers. The most recent review was started in 2018, with final recommendations published in 2021.

This document provides a brief update on progress in implementation of the STATS19 review, as well as the road safety statistics team’s future plans for developing the data collected and the publication and dissemination of the resulting statistics.

Further details of the new specification are available in the STATS20 guidance document (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/road-accident-and-safety-statistics-guidance#data-collection).

Feedback and ideas for further developments are welcome, via the contact details below.

Choose your .gov.uk domain name
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-15)

Use this guidance to make sure that you choose an appropriate .gov.uk domain name.

When you choose your .gov.uk domain name you must make sure it is:
- available - you can check if a domain name is registered (https://www.nominet.uk/lookup/)
- descriptive
- unique
- not confusing for users
Choose a descriptive domain name

Your proposed domain name must clearly describe your organisation or government initiative you’re providing. Think about users of the domain name and make sure the name is not too long or complicated.

Your domain name must:
- be between 3 and 63 characters long
- contain only alphanumeric characters (0-9 and a-z) and the ‘-‘ (dash) symbol
Your domain name must not:
- be the same or substantially similar to an existing .gov.uk domain name
- use ‘&’ (ampersands) or ‘_’ (underscores)
- include abbreviations like ltd, plc and gov
- include a postcode
You must use the full name of your organisation, government initiative or an appropriate suffix or abbreviation.

If you apply for an acronym, initialism, or abbreviation this must be descriptive, unique and clear to avoid user confusion. Applications for these terms will need approval from the Naming and Approvals Committee. Commonly-used abbreviations like DWP, HMRC or DVLA are acceptable as are abbreviations that are well-known to your users.

Example

A central department can use hmrc.gov.uk.

A county council can use northamptonshire.gov.uk.

A town council can use biggleswadetowncouncil.gov.uk, biggleswadetown.gov.uk or biggleswade-tc.gov.uk

A combined authority can use greatermanchester-ca.gov.uk. A combined county authority can use norfolksuffolk-cca.gov.uk.

A parish council can use bonbyparishcouncil.gov.uk, bonbyparish.gov.uk or bonby-pc.gov.uk. If your council uses an established abbreviation in its current domain name, you may be able to use it for a .gov.uk domain. Any domain applications using an abbreviation must end with -pc.gov.uk, -parish.gov.uk or -parishcouncil.gov.uk.

A geographical identifier your users will recognise.

Example

northyorks.gov.uk is acceptable.

Make your proposed domain name unique

If your proposed domain name is the same as another .gov.uk domain name you must choose another name.

If you apply for a generic word or combination of generic words for a .gov.uk domain name, the Domain Management team will refer this to the Naming and Approvals Committee (https://www.gov.uk/government/groups/naming-and-approvals-committee-nac). The committee may contact other government organisations who may have a claim on the generic words before they make their final decision.

Example

technology.gov.uk is generic and the Domain Management team would refer this request to the Naming and Approvals Committee.

New targeted support regime to enable more people to make the most of their money
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-30)

The government will publish proposed draft legislation to support a new regime to give people the confidence to invest and make more informed decisions about their pensions

- The FCA today published draft rules for a new regime of targeted support to enable firms to do more to support consumers with investing and managing their pensions.
- As part of the Mansion House package on 15 July, the government will publish a policy note on proposed legislative changes to enable the future implementation of targeted support.
The government and the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) are conducting a review of the regulatory boundary between financial advice and guidance to improve access to timely and affordable help with financial decision-making.

Today, the FCA published draft rules for a new regime called targeted support which would enable authorised firms to provide more support to consumers with their pensions and investments, by making suggestions appropriate to consumers with similar circumstances and characteristics. Targeted support forms part of the government’s workplace pension roadmap (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/684af273efd2a4de6296ff59/workplace-pensions-roadmap.pdf) and will be complemented by a range of other measures to address the challenges faced by pensions savers.

To enable the implementation of targeted support, the government will publish a policy note setting out proposed changes to the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001. The note and draft statutory instrument will be published alongside the Chancellor’s Mansion House speech on 15 July.

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 Hampton & Richmond 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 Hampton & Richmond 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:
- Armed Forces Friendly
- UK Service Veterans And Leavers
- Armed Forces Day
- Armed Forces Charities
- UK Wounded, Injured And Sick
We also pledge the following:

Support Ticket For Troops and proactively welcome Service Personnel during matchdays

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.
