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

- no member of the Armed Forces Community should face disadvantage in the provision of public and commercial services compared to any other citizen;

Section 2: Demonstrating our commitment

The Regulator of Social Housing's view of how well Sage Homes RP Limited is meeting regulatory standards.

The judgement(s) on this page concern an organisation that is designated a for-profit registered provider.

The registered provider is not at the head of its group. It is a subsidiary organisation within a larger group of connected companies. The registered provider is not intended to operate as a standalone entity in the group structure. It requires the ongoing support of related parties to fulfil its functions and / or meet its objectives. The nature of this support is described in the judgement(s).

The judgement(s) concern the registered provider only and do not represent an assessment of the non-registered entities within the group.

There are separate regulatory judgements for other registered providers in this group, Sage Housing Limited and Sage Rented Limited. These judgements are available on their respective pages on Gov.uk.

Regulatory judgements and regulatory notices are the regulator’s official view of a provider. Each provider’s page contains their current and previous judgements. In some cases, as well as publishing a provider’s grades, we will also issue a narrative regulatory judgement report. We will usually do this where, for any reason, our assessment of that provider has changed, or there are new issues we want to make public.

See an explanation of the terms and the current and previous regulatory judgements table (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/regulatory-judgements-and-regulatory-notices). An A-Z of providers is also available.

See an explanation of the regulatory standards and the different grades.

Archived regulatory judgements and PDF versions of regulatory judgements are available on request. Please contact the Regulator of Social Housing by emailing xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) or telephone xx-xxxx-xxxx with your request.

CH403260 - Calculating penalties: special reduction: when to consider Special Reduction
Source: gov.uk (2025-02-06)


This page and chapter are under review as the relevant content is also published in the technical guidance chapters of the Compliance Handbook (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook), within Compliance checks factsheets (https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/hm-revenue-and-customs-compliance-checks-factsheets) and in Compliance checks guidance (https://www.gov.uk/guidance/hmrc-compliance-checks-help-and-support). If you use particular pages regularly, please email xxx@xxx.xx (mailto:xxx@xxx.xx) to let us know the specific content you find useful.

You must not give a special reduction without authority from the Specialist Technical Team to do so.

You only consider special reduction after you have fully taken into account
- all matters that can affect whether there is liability to a penalty at all, including reasonable excuse if appropriate, and
- the amount of the penalty
in accordance with the guidance at CH170400 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch170400).

Once you are satisfied that a penalty is chargeable, and you have considered behaviour, and quality of disclosure, you must consider whether special circumstances are present.

You must consider special reduction in all cases before seeking authorisation to issue a penalty assessment, whether or not the person requests special reduction.

Special circumstances are either
- uncommon or exceptional, or
- where the strict application of the penalty law produces a result that is contrary to the clear compliance intention of that penalty law.
See CH170600 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch170600) for a more detailed explanation.

Note that special circumstances are circumstances not already taken into account in deciding the penalty chargeable. These could potentially include circumstances which you may have considered in respect of reasonable excuse, but which you decided did not constitute reasonable excuse (therefore they have not already been taken into account in the penalty chargeable).

See CH170800 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch170800) for examples to help illustrate when special circumstances might exist.

You must consider all circumstances which you have become aware of during the compliance check. If appropriate, consider whether you need to further clarify anything you have become aware of to ascertain whether this would constitute a special circumstance.

In most cases you will conclude that there are no special circumstances, and you must make a note of the reasons for that decision on the National Penalty Processing Systems (NPPS) and case records. In the case of careless behaviour you should now consider suspension, see CH405050 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch405050).

If you do consider that there are special circumstances you must make a submission to the Specialist Technical Team, see CH403275 (https://www.gov.uk/hmrc-internal-manuals/compliance-handbook/ch403275).

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 Direct Kit 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 Direct Kit 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.
