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 Bryco Recruitment 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 Bryco Recruitment 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
We also pledge the following:

-Working with CTP in order to establish a tailored employment pathway for service leavers

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.

Universal Credit statistics, 29 April 2013 to 11 September 2025
Source: gov.uk (2025-10-14)

Statistics for the number of people on Universal Credit by geography, age, conditionality regime, duration, employment and ethnicity.

These official statistics contain data on:
- the number of people who made a claim or started on Universal Credit to July 2025
- the number of people who are on Universal Credit to September 2025
- the number of households who are on Universal Credit to May 2025
See the background information and methodology note (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/universal-credit-statistics-background-information-and-methodology) for guidance on these statistics, such as timeliness, uses, and procedures. Universal Credit claims and starts breakdowns by postcode are no longer available from April 2022 onwards, due to missing geography data. The missing information has been captured and action is being taken to reinstate these breakdowns in future releases. Updates will be provided via Stat-Xplore and the GOV.UK website.

Interactive tools

Software used for the interactive maps is no longer supported. These showed households on Universal Credit at the local authority level and people on Universal Credit at Jobcentre Plus level.

The interactive maps have therefore been withdrawn and a replacement is currently under development. Once completed and launched, the interactive tool (called Examine-a-Stat) will have improved functionality, including interactive maps, to better meet a wider range of user needs. It will be available in due course and the statistics are currently accessible on Stat-Xplore (https://stat-xplore.dwp.gov.uk/).

Pre-release access

In addition to staff who are responsible for the production and quality assurance of the statistics, up to 24-hour pre-release access is provided to ministers and other officials. We publish the job titles and organisations of the people who have been granted up to 24-hour pre-release access to the latest Universal Credit statistics (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/pre-release-access-to-statistics-order-2008/pre-release-access-to-dwp-statistics#universal-credit).

A report setting out the findings from an evaluation of the 10 investment projects delivered via the Exceptional Regional Growth Fund (eRGF) mechanism.

The study evaluates 10 investments, which were provided with a total of £101 million of grant support, complemented by a further £555 million of co-investment from the businesses concerned.

The evaluation utilises a mixed methodology approach to test the eRGF logic model by asking whether those involved in the projects link the funding provided to decisions to locate significant investments in the UK (carried out via the qualitative case study approach).

The quantitative evidence then explores 2 dimensions:
- whether projects are associated with expansions at businesses and fewer closures of operations
- whether the employment associated with these expansions is high value

Amend regulations to support the supply and deployment of vaccines
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-05)

This consultation seeks views on amending the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 to support the ongoing supply and deployment of vaccinations across the UK.

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Human Medicines Regulations 2012 (HMRs) were amended in 2020 to support the rollout of both the COVID-19 and influenza vaccination programmes and ensure that there was a sufficient vaccination workforce to deliver them.

The aim of the proposals set out in this consultation is to further amend the HMRs to ensure that lessons learned during this period can be used to support the safe supply, distribution and administration of a wider range of vaccines. This will help support a safe, effective and stable vaccination system that is fit for the future.
COM133022 - Returns / notices: unlogging returns: unlogging a return (Action Guide)
Source: gov.uk (2025-12-05)


To unlog a return, consider steps 1 - 14 below.

1.

If the return was e-filed and has not been logged onto COTAX, use function LRTN (Log Return) to log the return, using the date of receipt shown on the CT portal.

You must do this so you can unlog the return and purge it from the portal. If you do not, the company cannot submit a valid return.

2.

Check whether the due date (see Glossary for more information) has passed for the Accounting Period (AP).
- If it has not passed, go to step 5.
3.

If the due date has passed, use function DAPD (Display AP Details) to check if the ‘CII’ (clerical interest indicator) or ‘credit / debit interest indicator’ signals are set for the AP.
- If one or both of the ‘CII’ or ‘CDII’ signals are set, go to step 3.
- Otherwise, go to step 5.
4.

If one or both of the ‘CII’ or ‘CDII’ signals are set use function VPPD (View Payment and Posting Details) to:
- see if an interest charge has been raised
- determine from the pursuit status whether the case is working with Accounts Office or Debt Management.
5.

If an interest charge has been raised, ask the Debt Management or Accounts Office working the case to reduce the interest charge to nil before you take further action.

6.

Use function MRSC (Maintain Repay/Realloc Signals (Company)) to inhibit automatic repayments and reallocations for all APs. See the action guide at COM121022 for more information.

7.

If the enquiry in progress signal is set, read COM71061 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/cotax-manual/com71061) for guidance before unlogging the return.

IEIM401560 - Financial Accounts: Depository Account: Specified Electronic Money Products
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-06)


From 1 January 2026, the definition of Depository Account is expanded to include an account or notional account that represents all Specified Electronic Money Products (SEMP) held for the benefit of a customer, and an account that holds one or more Central Bank Digital Currencies (see IEIM401565 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim401565)) for the benefit of a customer.

SEMPs below a certain threshold are Excluded Accounts and are not reportable. For guidance on applying the threshold, see IEIM (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim401875)401 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim401875)875 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-exchange-of-information/ieim401875).

The definition of a SEMP is any product that is:

a) a digital representation of a single Fiat Currency;

b) issued on receipt of funds for the purpose of making payment transactions;

c) represented by a claim on the issuer denominated in the same Fiat Currency;

d) accepted in payment by a natural or legal person other than the issuer; and

e) by virtue of regulatory requirements to which the issuer is subject, redeemable at any time and at par value for the same Fiat Currency upon request of the holder of the product.

However, a SEMP does not include a product created for the sole purpose of facilitating the transfer of funds from a customer to another person pursuant to instructions of the customer.

A product is not created for the sole purpose of facilitating the transfer of funds if, in the ordinary course of business of the transferring Entity, either the funds connected with such product are held longer than 60 days after receipt of instructions to facilitate the transfer, or, if no instructions are received, the funds connected with such product are held longer than 60 days after receipt of the funds.

For reporting periods prior to the calendar year 2026, a Depository Account will not include issuing e-money in exchange for funds pursuant to the Electronic Money Regulations 2011, or any funds received from customers with a view to the provision of unregulated payment products that fall within the statutory exclusions provided in the Electronic Money Regulations 2011 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2011/99/regulation/2/made)orPayment Services Regulations 2009 (http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2009/209/contents/made).

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 Hydrasun 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 Hydrasun 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.
Travel with assistance dogs: transport companies and routes
Source: gov.uk (2025-11-28)

Check the air, sea and rail carriers registered with the Animal and Plant Health Agency to transport assistance dogs with their owners.

You must follow pet travel rules (https://www.gov.uk/bring-pet-to-great-britain/guide-dogs) if you enter or return to the UK with your assistance dog.

These transport companies have agreed with the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA) how they’ll check assistance dogs meet pet travel rules on these routes.

If you travel from an EU country (https://www.gov.uk/eu-eea), you can use other companies and routes, but you should check they:
- accept assistance dogs
- check pets meet travel rules
Your dog could be quarantined and you could be delayed if:
- you travel with a company that is not registered with APHA
- your assistance dog does not meet pet travel rules

Source: gov.uk (2025-01-10)


The technical specialist in Personal Tax International, Liverpool must be consulted to consider whether a transfer of assets case is suitable to be listed before the Tribunal.

Administrative provisions relating to appeals are to be found in the Appeals, Reviews and Tribunals Guidance (ARTG (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/appeals-reviews-and-tribunals-guidance/artg)). Where requests for postponement or cancellation of a hearing are received by the case-owner, these should be referred immediately to the technical specialist who will liaise with HMRC Legal Group.

Guidance relating to the making of submissions to Personal Tax International can be found at INTM604440 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm604440).
