It is a standard question along the lines of "Has any building work
requring Building Regs approval got the necessary paperwork to show
approval?".

Of course, there is a standard response of "Not Known", except for when
there is paperwork.

Yup - but if the purchasers surveyor notices the work was done, regardless
of which owner paid for the work - there is still the need for the relevant
approval letters etc.

If you've lived there 10 years and its obvious (eg. windows stamped with
2003, brand new bricks etc) that work has been done and you've put Not Known
there may be a problem proving you didn't know you did it.
