Information you need for biodiversity net gain (BNG).

This page is where you’ll find all GOV.UK guidance on BNG. If you’re new to BNG, read understanding biodiversity net gain (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/understanding-biodiversity-net-gain), which gives an overview of key information.

You can also find:
- step by step guidance for land managers (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/meet-your-bng-requirements-steps-to-take-for-land-managers)
- step by step guidance for developers (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/meet-biodiversity-net-gain-requirements-steps-for-developers)
- LPA guidance (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/biodiversity-net-gain-what-local-planning-authorities-should-do)
- detailed guidance on planning and BNG (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/biodiversity-net-gain)
Biodiversity net gain (BNG) is a way of creating and improving natural habitats. BNG makes sure development has a measurably positive impact (‘net gain’) on biodiversity, compared to what was there before development.

You will need to understand the requirements of BNG if you’re a:
- developer
- local planning authority
- land manager wanting to sell in the BNG market
In England, BNG is mandatory under Schedule 7A of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 (as inserted by Schedule 14 of the Environment Act 2021) (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2021/30/schedule/14/enacted). Developers must deliver a BNG of 10%. This means a development will result in more or better quality natural habitat than there was before development.

The UK is working to tackle the root causes of displacement, including war, instability and repression: UK statement at the UN Security Council
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-28)

Statement by Ambassador James Kariuki, UK Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, at the UN Security Council briefing by the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.

I want to start by underlining our wholehearted support for UNHCR and High Commissioner Grandi’s passionate leadership. You have steered the organisation through a decade of global change.

A decade of increasing conflict, climate shocks and instability.

All these factors continue to push people from their homes, driving displacement ever higher.

In the world today, over 123 million people are forcibly displaced.

In the face of such challenges, we must focus on solutions.

I will highlight three that are priority areas for the UK.

First, we will continue to do all we can to tackle the root causes of displacement, including war, instability, and repression.

We will work at all levels, including through this Council to protect the rules-based international system and promote peace.

We will work with international partners to tackle people smuggling and human trafficking, which exploits vulnerable people for financial gain.

Just this month, the UK led a successful Border-Security Summit, where we secured agreements between participating countries, to drive efforts to disrupt organised immigration crime and save lives.

Second, we will seek solutions to regional and country-specific crises.

Many of which, from Ukraine to the Middle East, are the focus of this Council.

This month, the UK hosted a conference on Sudan with humanitarian and political objectives, including support for an end to the conflict and easing the impact on the region and we were grateful for the participation of Commissioner Grandi along with other parts of the UN leadership.

In Cox’s Bazar, we have funded UNHCR to support refugees’ access to healthcare, clean water and hygiene.

We will continue to advocate for safe, dignified and sustainable solutions for refugees, including at the UN Rohingya Conference in September.

And third, we continue to push for innovative approaches to addressing displacement.

We support the High Commissioner’s Sustainable Responses Initiative, which supports refugee inclusion and self-reliance, and ownership of solutions by host countries.

We look forward to the Global Compact for Refugees meeting in December – a key moment to review progress on pledges we made in 2023, to deliver better outcomes for displaced people and host communities.

And we encourage others to join and sustain our collective efforts to achieve the Compact’s goals.

In conclusion, President, to reverse the growing trend of displacement, we need to focus on solutions to the causes we have all discussed today.

The UK is committed to working with UNHCR and other international partners and institutions to achieve this.

INTM601440 - Transfer of assets abroad: The benefits charge: Background
Source: gov.uk (2025-04-07)


In 1981 a separate charge, which for the purpose of this guidance we have called ‘’the benefits charge’’, was introduced to the transfer of assets provisions for individuals who receive benefits as a result of a transfer of assets made by another person (INTM600760 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm600760)).

This followed the House of Lords decision in Ronald Arthur Vestey and Others v CIR (54 TC 503) when it was held that the contemporary income charge could only apply where the individual potentially chargeable had themselves made or procured the transfer of assets. The income charge is described in INTM600520 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm600520) onwards.

From 10 March 1981, where income that arises to a person abroad as a result of a relevant transfer can be used, directly or indirectly, to provide a benefit for an individual who is ordinarily resident (or, from 6 April 2013, resident) in the UK, that individual is potentially chargeable to income tax under the benefits charge if the individual is not already chargeable to income tax on the income under the income charge.

Although the benefits charge only applies from 10 March 1981, the charge applies irrespective of when the transfer or associated operations took place.

It should be noted that the benefits charge was expanded following the introduction of the rules around deemed domicile, so that from 6 April 2017 it can apply to non-domiciled and deemed domiciled settlors of non-resident trusts. There is a separate section on the new deemed domicile rules starting at INTM603180 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/international-manual/intm603180).

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 Project RECCE 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 Project RECCE 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:

- Flexible Leave For Spouses
- UK Reservists

- Reserve Forces Day

A quota for these commodities was opened under Regulation 1067/2008, reducing the duty to 12%. A licence referring to this Regulation must be presented which should also state the country of origin. A certificate of origin is also required.

A situation has arisen in recent times where cereal thought by the importer to be high quality has been entered on CHIEF accordingly, but the importer asks for the cereal to be entered under this quota if it fails analysis. This is not permissible unless the importer holds a quota licence and the licence is valid on the date of the entry. This situation has been particularly prevalent on imports from Kazakhstan.
Get a biosecurity report to receive poultry in a bird flu disease zone
Source: gov.uk (2025-06-09)

How to get a biosecurity report for your premises to receive poultry moved under a specific movement licence in a bird flu disease zone.

You need a valid biosecurity report for your premises to receive day old chicks or live birds moved under a specific movement licence in a bird flu disease zone (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/apply-for-an-exemption-from-animal-disease-movement-restrictions).

The report is completed by an official veterinarian (OV) or APHA vet inspector who visits your premises to check the biosecurity measures you have in place to protect against the spread of bird flu (avian influenza).

You can get a report at any time. Having a report ready in advance can help to speed up movement licence applications.

If you do not have a valid report, APHA cannot grant movement licence applications to your premises until you either:
- get a report
- revalidate an existing report - if your premises completes a production cycle within 6 months of your report
You need to get a new biosecurity report every 6 months.

Get a biosecurity report

To get a biosecurity report for your premises:

Contact an OV or APHA vet inspector to organise a biosecurity visit of your premises.

The vet will visit your premises to assess the biosecurity measures you have in place and complete a biosecurity report (EDO338).

The vet will send a copy of the report to APHA. You can also keep a copy for your records. The report is valid for up to 6 months.

When APHA recieve a movement licence application to move poultry to your premises they will check if you have a valid biosecurity report. If you do not have a valid report, APHA will contact the person who applied for the movement licence to explain why they cannot grant the licence.

Revalidate a biosecurity report

If your premises completes a production cycle within 6 months of your report, a vet will need to re-validate your report.

This should be either the vet who signed the original report, or an OV who has visited your premises since the original report was made. They may not need to revisit your premises to revalidate the report.

If you need help you can contact the APHA customer advice team.

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.

NRFI: International Organisations

International organisations are Non-Reporting Financial Institutions (NRFI) for FATCA and will generally be NRFIs for CRS.

International Organisation is a defined term in the CRS and any entity that falls within the definition is a NRFI, subject to the exceptions set out below. International Organisation means any international organisation or wholly owned agency or instrumentality thereof. This category includes any intergovernmental organisation (including a supranational organisation):
- That is comprised primarily of governments;
- That has in effect a headquarters or substantially similar agreement with the UK; and
- The income of which does not inure to the benefit of private persons.
There are two exceptions to this general rule:

i) An International Organisation will not be a NRFI with respect to a payment that is derived from an obligation held in connection with commercial financial activity of a type engaged in by a Specified Insurance Company, Custodial Institution or Depository Institution, and

ii) From 1 January 2026, an International Organisation will not be a NRFI with respect to the activity of maintaining Central Bank Digital Currencies for account holders that are not Financial Institutions, Governmental Entities, International Organisations or Central Banks.

The IGA with the USA defines these international organisations by reference to an exhaustive list which comprises any UK office of:

• The International Monetary Fund

• The World Bank

• The International Bank for Reconstruction and Development

• The International Finance Corporation

• The International Finance Corporation Order, 1955 (SI 1955 No.1954)

• The International Development Association

• The Asian Development Bank

• The African Development Bank

• The European Community

• The European Coal and Steel Community

• The European Atomic Energy Community

• The European Investment Bank

• The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development

• The OECD Support Fund

• The Inter-American Development Bank

If any International organisation with a UK office is identified that meets the CRS definition, but which is not included in the IGA list, you should contact the BAI Exchange of Information policy team with responsibility for automatic exchange agreements.
