The only Building Regulations requirement for a non-loadbearing wall
is airborne sound insulation. One layer of 12mm p/bd each side and
25mm mineral fibre between the studs will suffice. The studs may be
75mm timber or 45mm metal. There's no requirements for robustness or
impact resistance.

I'm amazed 25mm mineral fibre would make any difference.
Is this just the loft insulation type stuff, or something
much denser?
