Nigel,

Quote from our ops manual:

Our aircraft are fitted with Enhanced Mode S transponders and ATC can
view:
• the flight number,
• current heading, altitude and speed selected on the MCP,
• the current V/S
But that came from ops, therefore not guaranteed to be technically correct. This exact wording was introduced in the ops manual in 2006. I'll ask some questions.
