What are CAT II/III airport light requirements??

Here's a scenario:

Crew, aircraft are fully CAT III capeable, LVOs in force at the arrival airport.

However the airport is reporting reduced approach light system. CL, edge lights are all fully serviceable.

RVRs is 700m.

My question is can I commence a CAT II/III approach into this airport with downgraded approach lights? My DH would be 50ft on a CATIIIA approach which would mean the approach lights would be behind me and wouldn't matter then but are they legally requiried?

Many thanks for your input.
