These Regulations amend section 193A of the Finance Act 2004 to modify how HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) calculates and issues top-up payments to individuals contributing to registered pension schemes via net pay arrangements.

The regulations direct HMRC to identify and pay the difference to individuals who receive less income tax relief through net pay arrangements than they would have received under relief at source arrangements.

This mandate applies to HMRC Commissioners and affects individuals paying into occupational pension schemes whose tax relief outcomes differ based on the administration method of their scheme.

These Regulations bring into force Section 123 of the Pension Schemes Act 2026 on 29th June 2026.

The activated section grants the Board of the Pension Protection Fund the authority to adjust annual levies, including the power to reduce them to zero or a minimal amount, and establishes specific limits on how much those levies can be increased in subsequent years.

The order applies to the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and the Board of the Pension Protection Fund.

These Regulations amend the Wireless Telegraphy (Direct to Device Satellite Communications) (Exemption) Regulations 2026 to include additional frequency bands in the licensing exemption for satellite-to-device communications.

They authorize the establishment, installation, and use of wireless telegraphy apparatus within the 880.1-885.1 Megahertz and 925.1-930.1 Megahertz ranges without a formal license, provided specific power limits are met.

The regulations apply to any person or entity operating apparatus, such as mobile phones, capable of direct communication with satellite systems using the specified frequencies and GSM standards.

These Regulations establish a hierarchy of conservation measures that Natural England must follow when drafting or amending Environmental Delivery Plans (EDPs) under the Planning and Infrastructure Act 2025.

The agency is directed to prioritize avoidance of environmental damage over mitigation, and mitigation over compensation, provided such prioritisation is deemed appropriate and delivers value for money.

These rules apply specifically to Natural England's administrative processes in England and require the agency to explicitly categorize all proposed conservation measures within their plans.

These Regulations bring specific provisions of the Renters' Rights Act 2025 into force on 22nd June 2026, primarily concerning the enforcement of housing standards in England.

The order authorizes local housing authorities to impose civil penalties of up to £7,000 on individuals responsible for 'qualifying residential premises' that contain a category 1 hazard, provided it was reasonably practicable to remove said hazard.

It applies to local housing authorities, landlords, and superior landlords, and it establishes the administrative procedures for issuing, appealing, and enforcing these financial penalties while also amending the Tenant Fees Act 2019 to permit authorities to use penalty proceeds for enforcement activities.

These Regulations amend the rules governing how airport slot usage is calculated for the Summer 2026 and Winter 2026/27 scheduling periods at airports in England, Wales, and Scotland.

They authorize a temporary deviation from standard 'use-it-or-lose-it' thresholds by allowing air carriers to return up to 10% of their allocated slots—in two distinct 5% phases—without those slots counting against their usage record for future entitlement.

To qualify for this alleviation, carriers must have held historic rights to the slots, provided at least 14 days' notice to passengers regarding cancellations, and confirmed they have not ceased operations at the airport.

The Regulations apply to airport slot coordinators and air carriers operating at coordinated airports.

This statutory instrument amends existing UK maritime regulations to align with international standards set by the Maritime Labour Convention.
