From the CAA website:

A medical declaration (from 25th August 2016) is an affirmation of your medical ‘fitness to fly’ and may be used to exercise the privileges of a:

• UK Part-FCL Private Pilot Licence (PPL) to fly UK (G) registered Part 21 and non-Part 21 aircraft;
• UK Part-FCL Light Aircraft Pilots Licence (LAPL) to fly UK (G) registered Part 21 and non-Part 21 aircraft;
That's how I read it initially too. However, the page you quoted goes on to make a distinction between:

Holders of UK national licences only, to only fly aircraft no greater than 2000 kg MTOM
and
Holders of UK national and Part-FCL Licences, to fly any aircraft less than 5700kg MTOM

So my real question is does a UK issued Part-FCL LAPL now count as a UK national licence?
