I beg to differ. My understanding of the BS7671 wiring regs suggests that if you make any changes to an existing circuit then you are supposed to bring that entire circuit up to BS7671 standards, and clearly this particular circuit is not up to the required standard.
Changing a switch on a circuit surely constitutes a change to that circuit?

if your called out at 12am to somones house cos they have no lights your not going to stand there for the rest of the day rewiring it
it would be a note on the cert- if issued
