As Adam indicated, you buy separate modules for fuse, cord outlet and
switch. All available in the MK range.

Lots of others do grid switches too. The trick will be to get it to match
other wiring accessories in the room. If that matters.

Nothing to match, it's a toilet cubicle.

Is this to do with the towel rail? Is it a toilet cubicle or a bathroom?
If it has just a toilet and washbasin and no bath or shower, you can use
what you want - even a plug and 2-gang socket which would give you
switching, disconnection and fusing.

There's not even a washbasin, as I said that's just outside.

Yes, I know that as regards wiring regulations, I can do just about
whatever I like but I'd to make things 'bathroom level' as regards
safety. The double box is quite low down and close to the bowl so I
think it would not be a good idea to have 'user accessible' sockets or
switches there. An unswitched FCU and a cable outlet feels OK.

Your decision, but you are not going to have any people barefooted, with
wet feet and hands in a toilet cubicle and they are not going to be
plugging and unplugging it anyway. The risks are far, far lower than a
kitchen - where you do have sockets, people are plugging things in and
out, they they may have wet hands (and even be stood barefoot on a damp
floor if they've been careless at the sink) and they may even drop an
electrical item in the sink! We don't however (generally) put appliances
on FCUs there, we just plug them in.

Even in a bathroom, you are permitted sockets - as long as they are at
least 3m away from the bath or shower.

As you want to re-use a double box, then a plug and double socket is the
easiest way, with Grid units being another option.
