Prerequisites for initial type rating? ME-IR?

Hello everyone,

i will be embarking on my first type rating course on the a320 for my airline. I would like to know if you need a valid/current ME-IR to enrol for a type rating programme?

I had a short interaction with the head of training of the company and was informed that you are able to enrol for TR with an expired ME-IR? can anyone please clarify that i am able to go with an expired ME-IR?

FYI i am under the UK CAA and as per my research, they stated in their website that for initial TR you need to 'hold a multi-engine IR(A)' but did not elaborate if you require an active/current ME-IR

any advise or clarification is much appreciated,

Kind regards,
