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 Apex Modular Systems 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 Apex Modular Systems 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
- 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.

UKIFS launches search for exceptional talent to shape the future of fusion energy

UK Industrial Fusion Solutions (UKIFS), the organisation responsible for delivering the STEP (Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production) programme, is excited to launch the recruitment process for seven senior technical roles that are central to the future success of the programme.

The positions we’re recruiting are:
- Deputy Chief Engineer
- Head of Tokamak Machine
- Design Chief Architect Engineer
- Head of Engineering Assurance
- Head of Whole Plant Performance
- Head of Engineering – Fuel Cycle
- Head of Engineering – Power & Cooling
The people appointed to these roles will be key to the successful delivery of the technical programme, adding significant weight to the senior leadership team within the programme.

STEP is the programme to deliver the UK’s first prototype fusion energy plant, targeting 2040 and a path to the commercial viability of fusion, as a safe, low-carbon and near-limitless energy source. The key objectives of the programme are to demonstrate net energy production from fusion as well as fuel self-sufficiency and a route to plant maintenance for future fusion power plants.

This recruitment drive marks the beginning of a significant expansion of roles across the programme, with many more expected through the year.

All positions can be based at either Culham Campus in Oxfordshire, or the West Burton site in Nottinghamshire.

Paul Methven - CEO of UKIFS and Senior Responsible Officer for STEP said:

UKIFS is a new and exciting organisation, working to prove that fusion energy can make a meaningful difference to address climate change and energy security, by delivering net energy. This is a project that really could change the world, place the UK in the lead of a key global technology and generate real economic value for the country.

We are very excited to be launching our search for these roles, which are fundamental to the technical success of the project and are looking forward to receiving applications from people working in these areas of engineering, not only those in fusion but across adjacent industries.

We’d love you to join us.

About UK Industrial Fusion Solutions Ltd

UK Industrial Fusion Solutions Ltd (UKIFS) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) Group, responsible for the STEP (Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production) programme to deliver the UK’s prototype fusion energy plant.

MTT33110 - Calculating top-up amounts: Additional top-up amounts: Additional top-up amount where covered taxes are less than expected - Allocation to members
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


A collective additional amount arising where covered taxes were less than expected is to be allocated between members of the group in accordance with section 204 of Finance (No.2) Act 2023.

Amounts so allocated are an additional top-up amount of the member.

A collective additional amount arising from a recalculation, including special additional top-up tax amounts, are allocated between members under a different rule (see MTT33210 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt33210)).

Method of allocation

The collective additional amount will be allocated to those members which:
- have a negative covered tax balance, where
- that balance (when expressed as a negative number) is less than the member’s adjusted profits multiplied by 15%.
The additional top-up amounts of each such member is determined by the following process:

Step 1: Calculate the amount given by subtracting:
- each member’s negative covered tax balance, expressed as a negative number
from
- its adjusted profits multiplied by 15%.
Step 2: Add together the amounts determined under Step 1.

Step 3: Divide the amount determined for each member under Step 1 by the result of Step 2.

Step 4: Multiply the result of Step 3 for each member by the collective additional amount.

Attributing additional top-up amount to responsible members

Additional top-up amounts are to be allocated to responsible members in the same was as ordinary top-up amounts.

Ordinarily, top-up amounts will not be allocated to a member with no adjusted profit. Therefore, where no member of the group in has made an adjusted profit in a territory, it would be impossible to allocate a top-up amount.

Where there is an additional top-up amount under section 203, the members in the territory with an additional top-up amount are treated as having adjusted profits for the purpose of attributing amounts to responsible members (see MTT61050 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt61050)). This ensures its additional top-up amount can be properly attributed to responsible members.

A member will be treated as having adjusted profits of the following amount:
- its additional top-up amount,
divided by
- 15%.
For example, a member of a loss-making group with an additional top-up amount of 45 is treated as having adjusted profits of 300.

This is not applicable for Domestic Top-up Tax, which has a different rule for bringing top-up amounts into charge (see MTT31100 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt31100))

UK invites British nationals to complete booking portal for government-organised flight out of Israel and OPTs
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-21)

The Foreign Office is inviting vulnerable British nationals in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPTs) to register their interest in a flight to help them depart.

- the UK is preparing a flight to transport vulnerable British nationals and their dependants out of Israel and the OPTs early next week
- the UK government has today launched a flight registration form for British nationals to register their details and interest in the flight
- further flights will be considered depending on demand, and the latest security situation
All British nationals who have already registered via the Register Your Presence (https://www.register.service.csd.fcdo.gov.uk/israel-20250612/tell-the-uk-government-youre-in-israel-or-the-occupied-palestinian-territories) portal will automatically be contacted and provided with a link to the booking portal. The FCDO is urging all those interested in flights back to the UK to register their presence now, if not done so already, so that they can receive details.

Those with greatest need will be prioritised for flights. British nationals plus their non-British immediate family members travelling with them are eligible. All passengers must hold a valid travel document. Non-British immediate family members will require valid visas/permission to enter or remain that was granted for more than six months.

The FCDO will contact those who are allocated a seat on the flight directly and British Nationals should not make their way to the airport unless they are contacted.

An FCDO spokesperson said:

This is a perilous and volatile moment for the Middle East.

The safety of British Nationals in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories continues to be our utmost priority – that’s why the UK government is preparing flights to help those wanting to leave.

Working closely with the Israeli authorities, our staff are continuing to work at pace to assist British Nationals on the ground and ensure they receive the support they need.

Those eligible for the flights will be expected to pay for their seat – and payment will be taken on registration via the flight booking form. This fee will be refunded to those who are not allocated a seat. This is in line with our approach to previous charter flights from the region.

Commercial flights are continuing to operate from Egypt and Jordan, and international land border crossings to these countries remain open.

The situation remains volatile and the government’s ability to run flights out of Israel and the OPTs could change at short notice.

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 Lava’s Garage 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 Lava’s Garage 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

Captive insurance
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-15)

The government is consulting on the potential for a new approach to captive insurance companies, with the aim of supporting the competitiveness of the UK insurance sector.

Captive insurance is a method of self-insurance and risk management. A captive insurer is an entity that insures or reinsures the risk of other companies within the same group. Typical users are large, often multi-national, companies and professional services firms, although smaller businesses and public sector entities also establish captives.

With sustained interest from stakeholders and in the context of a rapidly growing global captives market, the Government wishes to understand the potential of a new approach to captives to support the growth and international competitiveness of the UK’s insurance sector.
