It does state what and what is not notifiable. But when 3rd parties write these there tends to be a leaning to their own interests...or interpretation. The worst is GasSafe. A DIYer can do gas work. But reading their web site a user should cover their eyes when seeing a gas appliance.

That sounds like a Square D code, not MK.
Got a link for that? The cable will be surface and short.
If all the cable is on the surface the RCD is not required for that.
It is still required for new sockets.
It is still required for new sockets.
Cables on the surface, or in trunking, conduit or similar do not require an RCD, as they are clearly visible.
Concealed cables do.
All socket outlets require an RCD,
You do not need a separate circuit for one socket outlet.

You do not need a separate circuit for one socket outlet.
QED is a square D mcb ....!That sounds like a Square D code, not MK.
Obvious. But it is easier doing it this way and a case of divide and rule as well.
Not if you abide by legislation and the wiring regulations it isn't. But you go ahead and badly advise your neighbour. Who cares? You obviously don't.
I will be telling him what Flameport wrote:

I think there MCCB'S not MCB'S
If no socket, a fused spur, no RCD, and no renewing the CU.
New circuit = LABC notification. Going to miss that out too, I suppose?
