If the flue is already there, the neighbour can't build within 600mm of it.
I'm really surprised. You're normally sensible and well-informed. This is totally wrong!

No need for a private prosecution. The new owners went to local authority building control and lodged a complaint. The neighbours had to move the boiler in their expensive new extension. This was Redbridge council and I got the job of moving the boiler as the homeowner understandably did not want the original installer back.
What people don't seem to realise is that unlike Gas Safe rules, Building Regs are actual statutes. The full force of the law is behind them, and local authority building control can enforce them, right up to forcing people to knock down extensions, new builds etc. Fines can be in the tens of thousands and chronic failure to comply has in the past led to jail terms.
Yep pretty much bang on , an extension is being ripped down around the corner from where we live ,build control officer came around saw it was not fully compliant and said adapt it to suit or knock it down.
Are all you guys actually registered?.
