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 Premdor Crosby International Ltd/Doorstop International 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 Premdor Crosby International Ltd/Doorstop International 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.

Source: gov.uk (2025-10-16)

Seeks views on the aviation fuel supplier levy design, which will fund the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) revenue certainty mechanism.

The design features of the levy include:
- how it could be calculated
- the length, frequency and sequence of when the levy is calculated, collected and paid
- the use of forecasts to provide certainty for industry
- actions to address over-collection, surpluses and under-collection of the levy

GB type approval scheme: cyber-security and software update requirements
Source: gov.uk (2025-09-16)

Seeks views on proposals to mandate approval of vehicles to 2 internationally recognised technical regulations under the GB type approval scheme.

This consultation seeks views on our proposal to mandate approval to 2 internationally recognised technical regulations under the GB type approval scheme. They are:
- UN Regulation No. 155 on cyber-security and cyber security management systems
- UN Regulation No. 156 on software updates and software update management systems
Under these proposals, we intend to:
- make the approval mandatory for specific vehicle categories produced in unlimited and medium series under the GB type approval framework
- outline the transitional arrangements for new vehicle types and registrations – this will ensure manufacturers have time to adapt processes to comply
- introduce exemptions that reduce the administrative burden on manufacturers
The proposal will ensure robust processes are in place for manufacturers to manage cyber-security threats and safely deploy software updates for new vehicles that enter the GB market.

We are also seeking views on extending the application of the technical requirements to other vehicle categories and introducing additional enforcement measures for vehicles in service.

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 Hicomply 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.

Green Home Finance: state of the market review
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-04)

Research into the state of the UK green home finance market, including the number and types of products on offer and views of stakeholders.

The Green Home Finance State of the Market Review was conducted in July 2021 to determine the offerings of UK lenders for homeowners to invest in the energy efficiency of their property. It had 3 primary aims:
- to understand the range of products being offered for investing in the energy efficiency of UK owner-occupied dwellings
- to uncover the view providers had of the green home finance market
- to estimate the potential for green home finance products among UK owner-occupied households more widely
The research comprised a desk-based review of all existing financial products available to owner-occupied households available as of July 2021, a set of exploratory interviews with 9 stakeholders from across the retail banking sector, and an estimation of the size of the owner-occupied market for investing in energy efficiency.

This report was originally published as an annex to the Green Home Finance Innovation Fund evaluation (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/green-home-finance-innovation-fund-evaluation).
