Part P permits the changing of fixtures and fittings without the need for a minor works certificate (self certification) or the involvment of a building control officer. So you can go ahead with changing socket fronts/light fittings/switches.
Not withstanding the fact that a qualified electrician would be carrying out the work (?).
I believe that there is a "probation" period upto 25th March, where you must complete any works started prior to 1st January if you are to avoid the Part P "entrapment".
Part P Q&A KeefyB - don't run the lamps at dimmed all of the time, you will need to run them at full power every now and then just to keep the internal gasses/metals in vapour
