Look up building regs document M.
Thank you, I can't seem to find the required height of the cistern from the floor. Is there a set height for this? As there's usualy a back rest to go in the space between the top of the pan and the bottom of the cistern.

In the good old days a Doc M pack was a Doc M pack.
Now there are various variations, one of which is the WC suite.
You can now get low-level and close-coupled, so cistern height is not a critical factor. It will be down to which option you go for.
The Armitage S6955, close-coupled, has no backrest:

If your installing a disabled ec without a close coupled cistern be aware that if the cistern is installed high it can give you a very strong flush and could splash onto the floor. I recently went to a school where 13 cisterns were installed too high and every one of them ha to be lowered 300mm as the installers just bashed them in without cutting down the flush pipe.
You can get baffles to stop that.
