Condensate drain connection to rainwater drain

View the thread, titled "Condensate drain connection to rainwater drain" which is posted in UK Plumbers Forums on UK Plumbers Forums.

I'm going to have to get by boiler replaced which means provision needs to be made for a condensate drain as the old boiler didn't have one.

The boiler is in the garage, that is part of the house, if that makes sense. The house was built in 1999.
There is no convenient internal drain.
Outside, there is a rainwater drain about 4 metres away from where the boiler is located that is fed by the roof gutter downpipe.
Severn Trent charge me for surface water drainage.
I'd like to extend the external rainwater drain underground and fit an additional trap and grid. Then send the condensate drain outside to the new trap, with suitable thermal insulation.

Is there anything wrong with this idea from a regulatory perspective please?
