Thumbs up Butts and Jolts.

the new CAA big wigs have decided that if they can't track the history of every single nut and bolt then they won't allow them to fly in the UK.
Hell, they (The CAA) couldn't even do this on a brand new 777. The only hardware that has traceability are those elements that have been determined to be reliability sensitive. As long as they use approved parts (common hardware made to mil specs (MS) or AN specs) or the British equivalent they should have no problems.
