We have had new pipework installed which is plastic up until the pipes come through the floor boards (for each sink, radiator etc.) where they are copper pipe. What bonding is required?

What room are they in??

Generally, only bonding is required in a bath/shower room. Metalic parts fed via plastic, where the transition happens in the room(inc under the floor), do not require bonding.
 
Thanks for your reply.

The pipes are in the kitchens and bathrooms.

In one bathroom the plastic piping is connected to the old copper piping outside the room (again under the floor) does this require bonding?
