As a guide - wouldn't AIP ENR 1.1, para 10.1.10 be appropriate?

Not it's not and never has been (under the NAS). ENR 1.1 para 9.1.13 refers.
Isn't it para 10.1.15 ?

a. {Location} Traffic
b. {Aircraft type}
c. {Callsign}
d. {Position/level/intentions}
e. {Location}

11.3.4 Use of the collective “ALL STATIONS” must precede a general
