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 Pepper’s - A Safe Place 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 Pepper’s - A Safe Place 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

- 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.

COM50060 - Claims/reliefs: loss and non-trading deficits carry-back: claims to surrender losses and deficits
Source: gov.uk (2025-07-31)


Any loss or non-trading deficit set-off in an Accounting Period (AP) that is displaced by a carry-back, remains effective when you calculate the amount of tax that attracts late payment interest under s87A(6) Taxes Management Act (TMA) 1970.

This is not the case if the displaced relief is surrendered to another group company as group relief.

The displaced amount is not then regarded as available to the surrendering company, and interest is calculated as if it had never existed.

There is no need to intervene in such cases because COTAX calculates the effective date of payment without regard for displaced reliefs.

See COM50061 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/cotax-manual/com50061) for legislation applying to this subject.

UN Human Rights Council 59: UK Statement for the Interactive Dialogue  on Central African Republic

UK Statement for the Interactive Dialogue on the Oral Update of the Independent Expert on Central African Republic (CAR). This statement was delivered on 4 July 2025 during the 59th session of the HRC in Geneva.

Thank you, Mr Vice President,

We thank the Independent Expert for his update and welcome the Central African Republic’s continued cooperation with his mandate.

As the Central African Republic continues to strengthen its human rights framework, we welcome the appointment of 11 new commissioners of the Truth, Justice, Reparation and Reconciliation Commission. And we encourage a timely resumption of the Commission’s activities.

However, we remain alarmed that reports of human rights violations and abuses continue to increase across the country. We reiterate our call for the Central African Republic to initiate court proceedings to hold to account members of armed groups accused of human rights violations and abuses.

Mr Vice President, holding credible and secure local elections is a crucial step to strengthen local governance ahead of presidential and legislative elections next year. The UK strongly encourages CAR to protect civil and political human rights throughout the electoral period. This is an important opportunity for CAR to demonstrate their commitment to democracy.

Mr Agbetse, following the recent postponement of local elections, how can this council support the timely and inclusive delivery of elections for the people of CAR?

The UK is deeply concerned by the destabilising activities of Libyan security actors and armed groups: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-17)

Statement by Ambassador Barbara Woodward, UK Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council meeting on Libya.

President I would like to make three points.

First, Libya’s economic trajectory is alarming.

With no unified budget and, as SRSG Tetteh said, no oversight, present levels of public spending by Libyan authorities risk rapidly diminishing the nation’s wealth.

Competition for state resources is putting Libya’s institutions under grave pressure, and risks fuelling renewed conflict.

Libya has the resources to build a prosperous future. But to achieve it, Libya’s leaders must put aside narrow interests and agree on a unified economic framework in the national interest.

We welcome the return of the World Bank to Tripoli to support this work.

Second, the UK is deeply concerned by the destabilising activities of Libyan security actors and armed groups.

This includes reports of unlawful and arbitrary detentions, kidnappings, imprisonment without due process and assassination attempts.

There needs to be accountability for such acts, to support civic space and trust in Libya’s law enforcement.

The recent closure of humanitarian organisations’ offices and detention of their employees is particularly troubling.

We urge Libyan authorities to work with international NGOs and resolve differences through dialogue.

Humanitarian organisations are an indispensable part of our collective efforts to support Libya, including to help address the Libyan authority’s concerns about illegal migration.

Third, Libya’s economic and security challenges underscore the urgent need for progress on the political track.

Libya needs a comprehensive, inclusive political process which will provide the foundation for sound economic governance, rule of law and accountability, and help tackle corruption.

The UK strongly supports UNSMIL’s efforts and commends SRSG Tetteh for her leadership.

A revitalised political process, flowing from the Advisory Committee’s deliberations, presents a real opportunity to chart a path towards the peace, stability and prosperity that the Libyan people deserve and yearn for, as I heard during my own visit to Libya and in more recent exchanges with young Libyans.

So we urge all Libyan actors to engage constructively with the UN’s efforts and the Advisory Committee’s recommendations.

FINANCIAL SERVICES – procedure – the Authority applies for a declaration that it may use and disclose documents provided to it by Ancean in ongoing reference proceedings - whether there is an implied undertaking or rule restricting the collateral use or disclosure of the documents – the statutory scheme, s.348-349 FSMA and FSMA (Disclosure of Confidential Information) Regulations 2001, provides a complete code as to whether, how and when the Authority may use and disclose documents provided to it in reference proceedings – the scheme displaces the position at common law which is in any event unclear - the Authority does not require the permission of the Tribunal to use and disclose Ancean’s documents, but if permission were required, it is given – the directions made and reasons given suffice, even if the Tribunal had the power to make a declaration

Government Property Profession Job Role Profiles
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-22)

The Government Property Profession Job Role Catalogue is designed to bring clarity, consistency, and alignment across property roles within government organisations

The Government Property Profession Job Role Catalogue is designed to bring clarity, consistency, and alignment across property roles within government organisations. It provides:
- Standardised job titles that help reduce confusion while still allowing flexibility for departments to adapt titles to fit their specific needs.
- A clear and accessible reference for both internal staff and external candidates.
- Guidance to support the Shared Services Strategy for Government, helping to increase consistency as departments and clusters share systems.
This framework is advisory. Departments may align with the job titles provided, but there is no requirement to change existing individual job titles. Decisions about titles remain with each department. While central government departments are the primary audience, arms-length bodies and other public sector organisations are welcome to use the catalogue as a reference.

BIM45955 - Specific deductions: patents and royalties: expenditure on acquisition of know-how
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-02)


There is general guidance as to the meaning of know-how at CA70010 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-allowances-manual/ca70010). Broadly, ‘know-how’ consists of manufacturing techniques, technical knowledge and secret processes

For Corporation Tax purposes, know-how is dealt with under the intangible fixed assets regime (see CIRD10000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/corporate-intangibles-research-and-development-manual/cird10000) onwards). Certain acquisitions of know-how by a company are excluded from the regime under its commencement rules where the acquisition is from a related party.

If the intangible asset regime does not apply, acquisition of know-how is generally dealt with, for Income Tax and Corporation Tax purposes, as part of the capital allowance system. For guidance see CA70010 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-allowances-manual/ca70010) onwards.

If there is a question as to whether the payments for know-how have a revenue character, this will need to be judged on its particular facts, in line with the principles explained at BIM35000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/business-income-manual/bim35000) onwards. You may also need to distinguish between payments for know-how, and franchise fees. Franchising is covered at BIM57600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/business-income-manual/bim57600) onwards.

The guidance on receipts from know-how can be found at CA72000 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/capital-allowances-manual/ca72000) onwards.

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 College of Paramedics 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 College of Paramedics 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:

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.
