Now that a DIYer cannot install his own electrics except by getting the
council to inspect the work, what acreditaion does an electrician
require?

He has to have paid money to an approved self-certifying organisation
such as NICIEC, SELECT, NAPIT, BSI etc. (List on odpm.gov.uk website)

If he works for a company does the individual still have to be
acredited

No (if he is working as an employee and the work is invoiced by the
company, the company is the legal entity doing the work).

or does the company acredidition cover the work

Yes.

and the company have to ensure of the competance of the electrician.

Um well in theory...
