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 Instalcom 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 Instalcom 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
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.
MTT45120 - Particular entities and adjustments: Investment entities: Calculating the top-up amount of an investment entity
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-05)


The following process is used to determine the top-up amount of an investment entity.

Step 1 – Determine the adjusted profits of the entity for the period. If the adjusted profits are nil or less, the top-up amount is nil.

Step 2 – Make any further adjustments to the adjusted profits that are required (see MTT45130 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt45130)).

Step 3 – Determine the substance based income exclusion for the entity (see MTT45140 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt45140)).

Step 4 – Make any further adjustments to the substance based income inclusion that are required (see MTT45130 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt45130)).

Step 5 – Subtract the substance based income exclusion amount (after any further adjustment have been made) from the adjusted profits (after any further adjustments have been made).

Step 6 – Determine the investment entity effective tax rate for the period (see MTT45150 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/multinational-top-up-tax-and-domestic-top-up-tax/mtt45150)).

Step 7 – Subtract the investment entity effective tax rate from 15%. If the result is nil or less, the top-up amount is nil.

Step 8 – Multiply the result of Step 7 by the result of Step 5.

Additionally, if the taxable distribution method election applies to the entity, the positive undistributed income amount must be added to Step 8 to determine the top-up amount of the investment entity.

This is set out in section 220 of Finance (No.2) Act 2023.

Determining the adjusted profits of an investment entity

In the legislation, the term ‘standard member’ is used to refer to the main subgroup in a territory for which the effective tax rate and top-up amounts are determined.

Investment entities are not standard members, and their effective tax rate and top-up amounts are determined separately from the standard members.

When applying the rules of Chapter 4 to an investment entity, the term ‘standard member’ should instead be taken as a reference to the members of the subgroup in question.

ECSH91000 - Appeals and Reviews: Appeals, review and tribunal guidance (ARTG)
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-28)


The appeals, review and tribunal guidance (ARTG) is HMRC’s core guidance on dealing with appeals, reviews, and tribunals.

It sets out the background on how and why tribunals operate and the various rights of appeal and review across HMRC. Whilst much of the information is specific to tax decisions and tribunals, it is still a useful resource for Economic Crime-Supervision (EC-S) staff.

HMRC’s decisions follow the indirect tax appeal route - once the appealable decision has been issued, if the business does not agree with the decision, it has the option to ask for an independent review and/or appeal the decision to be determined by a tribunal. For more information on reviews see ECSH93000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/economic-crime-supervision-handbook/ecsh93000).

(This content has been withheld because of exemptions in the Freedom of Information Act 2000)

Where an appeal is made, it is notified directly to the tribunal. The HMRC case worker is then notified, via the relevant appeals team in HMRC, that an appeal has been filed. For information on appeals against EC-S decisions see ECSH92500 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/economic-crime-supervision-handbook/ecsh92500).

Case workers, in addition to the pages referenced above, should also refer to the ARTG when they are notified that a decision is being challenged by way of a request for a review and/or an appeal has been submitted to the tribunal.

The ARTG is available here (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/appeals-reviews-and-tribunals-guidance).

Regulatory Sandbox for Rendezvous and Proximity Operations: Stage 1
Source: gov.uk (2025-08-20)

Outputs from Stage 1 of the Regulatory Sandbox for Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO).

This is an independent report and does not represent government policy.

Stage 1 of the regulatory sandbox addresses key regulatory challenges identified in the UK Space Regulatory Review 2024 (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/space-regulatory-review-2024), with a focus on developing a clear, effective and predictable framework for licensing RPO missions and wider space activities.

Stage 1 of the RPO regulatory sandbox focused on:
- agreeing the minimum viable product (MVP) for the sandbox and defining a target mission concept (TMC)
- evaluating licensing requirements and identifying gaps and challenges in the current regulatory framework
- conducting initial risk assessments for safety, security, and sustainability and undertaking an iterative simulation of licensing process using the TMC
- using outputs from the regulatory and technical reviews, making recommendations for ways to improve the regulatory framework, addressing areas of uncertainty and streamline current challenges identified
The principal outputs of this project are:
- the sandbox methodology and mode, which can be used for future sandboxes; and
- identified challenges for RPO operators with recommendations to address them
This independent report also presents other findings of the sandbox, including on spectrum challenges, insurance considerations, and the economic impact assessment of the sandbox.

Employee unable to act for themselves - Appointees

If an employer asks HMRC to arrange for an appointee or a representative of the employee to be made an appointee, then obtain:
- the full name and address of employee
- the full name and address of employer
- brief circumstances - such as why an appointee is needed
- details of any known appointee for state benefits
- details of anyone already handling the employee’s affairs - spouse, solicitor, family member.
Contact IPD Statutory Payments Technical Team for advice.

If a doctor advises an employer that the employee is unable to act for herself due to mental incapacity the employer should contact the local HMRC office to arrange for someone to be appointed to handle the employee’s affairs.

If HMRC appoints someone to act on behalf of the employee, that person (the appointee) takes over all the employee’s SMP/SAP/SPP/ShPP/SPBP/SNCP rights and obligations. They will be able to:
- ask for information from the employer,
- ask for formal decisions and lodge appeals, and
- receive any SMP/SAP/SPP/ShPP/SPBP/SNCP due to the employee.
In the same way, the employer will be able to ask the appointee to supply information relating to the employee’s SMP/SAP/SPP/ShPP/SPBP/SNCP. The employer can also expect the appointee to tell them of any changes in circumstances that may affect entitlement.

In exporting these goods without a licence/ without declaring the licence on the C88/ with a licence which does not cover the goods/ destination to which they were being exported [use whichever form of words is appropriate], you may have become liable to proceedings under Section 68 of the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979.

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 Groundwork GM Enterprises 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 Groundwork GM Enterprises 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
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.
