EEk, dont think you should put sockets on a lighting circuit, wire's
too thin, somebody might plug in a heater.

So long as you label them as only being suitable for loads under (say)
3A then you are ok.

The wire will be adequately protected against fault and overload by the
MCB, so that is ok.

And legally you'd need

No you don't. That would only be for a job classed as "notifiable". That
