Evaluating the success of the Reach for the Sky Challenge Fund and its ability to get young people into aviation careers.

These periodic reports evaluate the Reach for the Sky Challenge Fund (https://stem.caa.co.uk/reach-for-the-sky-challenge-fund/) including:
- the success of the fund
- the experiences of applicants when applying for funding and implementing their projects
- the outputs and immediate outcomes of the funding
The Challenge Fund was first announced in July 2022 (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/15-million-to-boost-recruitment-into-the-aviation-sector) with further funding given in 2024 (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/young-aviators-encouraged-to-reach-for-the-sky-in-skills-and-outreach-programme).

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 Enviromontel 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 Enviromontel 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 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.

MTT20100 - Calculating the effective tax rate: The effective tax rate
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


To determine the effective tax rate (ETR) of the members of a group in a territory for a period, the following process is to be followed.

Step 1: Determine the adjusted profits of each member of the group located in that territory for that period (see MTT21000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt21000)+).

Step 2: Subtract the sum of any losses made in the period from the sum of any profits made by the members of the group located in the same territory for that period.

If the outcome of this step is nil or less, the ETR is to be treated as being 15%.

Step 3: Determine the covered tax balance for all of the members of the group in that territory (see MTT25000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt25000)+).

If the aggregate covered tax balance is nil, the ETR will be 0%.

Step 4: Divide the aggregate covered tax balance (the outcome of the third step) by the net adjusted profits (the outcome of the second step).

The ETR will be this figure, expressed as a percentage.

This is set out in Section 132 of Finance (No.2) Act 2023.

Standard members

The ETR of investment entities (see MTT45110 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt45110)) and minority owned members (see MTT41520 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt41520)) are calculated separately to the other members of a group in a territory.

The legislation uses the term 'standard member' to denote that the calculation is to be performed separately for standard members, investment entities, and minority owned subgroups. See MTT41510 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt41510) for further guidance.

Joint venture groups

Members of a joint venture group are treated as being in a different group for the purpose of determining the ETR. See MTT41600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt41600)+ for further guidance.

Stateless members

A stateless member of the group is treated as the sole member of the group located in a nominal territory. This will be separate to the nominal territory of any other stateless member of the same group. See MTT18010 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt18010) for further guidance.

Domestic Top-up Tax – single entities

The ETR of a qualifying entity that is not a member of a group is determined by the same process as the process for calculating the ETR of a member of a group for MTT. However, there is no need to aggregate profits with the losses of the other members of the territory, as there will not be any other members.

HMAG30050 - Registration and approval: approval in principle
Source: gov.uk (2025-03-17)


To fund capital investment (for example, the money needed to fund permanent fixed assets such as premises and equipment) businesses will normally seek a loan and/or issue stock. Lenders and investors will usually seek reassurance that the business they are lending money to, or investing in, is genuine. They need to be sure that they will either get a return for their investment or if lending money that the business will be able to trade to meet the terms of their borrowing agreement etc.

It is for this reason that new businesses, where capital investment is needed, may seek an approval in principle agreement from HMRC to satisfy investors and/or lenders.

Requests for approval in principle

When considering a request for approval in principle careful consideration must be given to what is known about the business, for example, by looking at details including the business’s business plan, details on Case flow, VAT (Value Added Tax) records and information online about the business.

It is necessary to establish who will have authority and responsibility for directing and controlling the activities of the business or its day-to-day management. It is also necessary to establish if there will be any significant beneficiaries of the business who are not directors, partners or similar etc. Once those with a controlling or beneficiary interest in the business have been identified, a fit and proper test should be carried out on these. Where the business is an existing one consideration should be given to the business’s annual accounts etc.

Where it is established that the persons are fit and proper and that there is a genuine business need for both the approval and an agreement in principle for the approval, we should identify which aspects of the business we have been unable to test, for example because plant and machinery or the premises has not been acquired yet.

Drafting approval in principle letters

Approval in principle letters should clearly show that the approval is conditional, subject to the business being able to meet the requirements and conditions set in the relevant public notice, and that no changes are made to the persons declared as having a day to day controlling or beneficiary interest in the business.

An approval in principle letter should normally be valid for the time necessary for the business to acquire the assets needed to start trading. As a guide this should normally be for 6 months but can be for a longer period if there is a good reason, for example, to allow the construction of trading premises.﻿

SMP

To qualify for SMP, a woman must have been employed by the same employer for a continuous period of at least 26 weeks into the Qualifying Week (QW). The employee can still satisfy the continuous employment rule, even if they have only actually worked for short spells during the 26 - week period. The sole test is length of employment or, when a baby is born early, how long employment would have lasted.

SAP

To qualify for SAP the adopter must have been continuously employed by the same employer for at least 26 weeks continuing into:
- the week in which they were notified that they have been matched with a child for adoption, or
- the week in which they received Official Notification that the certificate of eligibility has been or will be issued, or
- in adoption from abroad cases only, by the time they want to start their APP.
SPP - Birth

The employee must have been continuously employed for at least 26 weeks by the end of the 15th week before the week the baby due - QW.

They must then continue to be employed by the same employer until the date the baby is born

SPP - Adoption under UK law

The employee must have been continuously employed for at least 26 weeks continuing into the week in which the adopter is told by the adoption agency or social services they have been matched with a child - Matching Week (MW).

They must then continue to be employed by the same employer until the child is placed with the adopter.

SPP - Adoption from abroad

The employee must have been continuously employed for at least 26 weeks continuing into the week in which the adopter was sent Official Notification, (ON) or by the time they want to start their SPP and statutory paternity leave.

ShPP

The employee must have been continuously employed for at least 26 weeks by the end of the QW/MW/ONW.

They must then continue to be employed by the same employer until the week before they start receiving ShPP.

SPBP

The employee must have been continously employed for at least 26 weeks up to the end of the relevant week (RW).

They must also remain employed by the same employer up to the day the child dies or is stillborn.

SNCP

The employee must have been continuously employed for st least 26 weeks up to the end of the relevant week (RW). The RW will align with that of other statutory family payments (SMP, SPP, etc.) if the employee is eligible.

If they do not qualify for any other statotory family payment (SMP, SPP, etc.) the RW is the week immediately before the week the child enters into neonatal care
MTT45450 - Particular entities and adjustments: Insurance: Covered taxes
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-14)


A member carrying on life assurance business recognises returns that must be contractually paid over to policyholders within its financial statements as income.

Under some tax regimes, including the UK’s ‘I-E’ regime, life insurance companies are subject to corporation tax on investment income, even though it is earned on behalf of policyholders. Typically, the insurance company will then pass on this tax to policyholders through a recharge. The effect of this is to accelerate the tax so that the income economically belonging to policyholders is taxed as it accrues, rather than on the maturity of the relevant policy.

Multinational Top-up Tax and Domestic Top-up Tax are designed to ensure that large groups pay at least 15% on their profit in each territory. The investment income earned on behalf of policyholders is not economic income of the group, but rather income of the policyholders, and so does not form part of the group’s adjusted profits. It would be inappropriate to include taxes borne on behalf of policyholders in the member’s covered taxes because this would enable an insurer to avoid a top up tax even when the effective tax rate it pays in respect of its adjusted profits is lower than 15%.

Paragraph 173(2)(e) of Finance (No.2) Act 2023 consequently excludes those taxes (including withholding taxes) that are recharged to the policyholder by a member carrying on life assurance business from the definition of Covered Taxes.

The amount of tax that is excluded through Paragraph (e) should be determined based on the local tax return. In the UK, this is determined based on the allocation of profits between the policyholder and the shareholder and only those taxes charged at the policyholder rate are excluded.

The covered tax balance will therefore include the amount of corporation tax charged at the shareholder rate on the shareholder share of the company’s profit (adjusted for deferred tax balances).

Other insurance taxes

Section 173(1)(c) includes taxes that are imposed as a substitute for taxes on profits within the covered tax definition. This ensures that withholding taxes on income are included within covered taxes. These can include withholding taxes on gross premium income, such as the Federal Excise Tax in the United States.

However, indirect taxes such as Insurance Premium Tax in the UK are not included.

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.

National Space Innovation Programme
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-13)

Details of the UK Space Agency programme providing co-funding supporting high potential innovations development to catalyse investment for the UK space sector.

About the programme

The National Space innovation Programme (NSIP) supports the development of innovative space technologies by funding projects that may be high risk but have the potential for high returns and a clear target market.

In NSIP’s pilot year (FY20/21), 27 grants were awarded to industry and academic-led project teams across the UK. In FY21/22, NSIP provided additional grant funding to 11 of the pilot phase projects to enable these to continue advancing their innovative products, services and technologies that have application in the space sector. In FY22/23, two projects received a further funding boost to continue their activities under the NSIP pilot programme.

In its current form, NSIP builds on the successes and lessons learned from the NSIP Pilot and the Enabling Technologies Programme (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/enabling-technologies-programme), which has funded 41 projects across key technology themes. NSIP funding is targeted at disruptive space technologies, creating a pipeline of innovative projects to support and grow the UK space sector.

NSIP Call 1 supports projects being undertaken by industry, academia, and research organisations across a wide range of innovations within the space sector. This is being delivered in the form of multi-year grants of up to £5 million, which were awarded following an open funding call in FY23/24.

In addition to providing funding opportunities, NSIP also increases cross-sector collaboration, helps deliver space missions and space capabilities, and supports regional growth.

NSIP Call 2

NSIP Call 2 launched in March 2025, with deadlines for outline proposal of 8 May 2025 and full proposal of 23 July 2025 (other deadlines apply).
