Have been trying to understand if a Warrant is required to finish an en-suite that has been equpped with services under the original property conversion?

House has a completion certificate, and the en-suite was provisioned for, but never equipped. (Basically plasterboarded and decorated, with plumbing already provisioned behind the wet wall, ready to go).

Same with the cloakroom. Already has the soil pipe and plumbing in place, but was never finished prior to the completion certificate.

I read the regs, and it seems like I'm good to go. But I'm not sure of the definition of Sanitary Facility. Does that mean an appliance, or a room?

Eg, the wording is:

Allowed:

Any work associated with the
provision of a single sanitary
facility, together with any relevant
branch soil or waste pipe.

Exception:

Any work associated with a water
closet, waterless closet or urinal.

That makes no sense to me? Surely a toilet is a sanitary facility that attaches to a soil or waste pipe.

Confused :)
