See CAP 3218 at the link on this CA webpage:

Dave - Proposal 1.7 states:
'We propose that FI or CRI holders with a PMD may provide instruction towards:
- The NPPL(A) and associated class ratings
- Revalidation and renewal of existing class ratings; and
- Differences training associated with an existing rating.'
Note that the 'existing class ratings' may be included in any CAA-issued licence, not just the NPPL(A)!
So if the consultation responses agree with this proposal, you will soon be permitted to exercise the privileges of a CRI class rating without needing to hold a Class 2 medical certificate.
