Default Attic Firewalls legal or not?

Our building was split into separate properties decades ago.
You can get from one to another in the attic.
I think modern Regs would insist in firewalls to slow the spread of
fire.
Is this backdated or legal as it is?

One of the properties is rented, I know rental electrical regs are
stricter, are there regs saying rented properties must have fire
breaks?

Ask Building Control?

Not if the 'property split' was informal and neither
planners nor building control know about it :-)
