just to add there is a mixer valve fitted below this whb so that may suffice the building regs? but is the a reg for the tap handle???
Either the tap or the 'mixer valve' will be a thermostatic regulator - to prevent those with less controlled hands from scalding themselves.
And no, a straight swap isn't allowed. Google for "Doc M Pack" for the regs, contains all the info about heights, equipment levels and spec.
