iirc provided you aren't building a new property or stripping a property to external walls only you are only required to make disabled accessibility no worse than it was already (e.g. its perfectly fine to put your new sockets at the same height as your existing ones)

some local authority building control departments apparently belive differently though and making them behave can be tough or impossible.
