Recover - The requirement to inform ATC if your rate of descent either is or will be less than 500fpm ceases at the Transition Altitude.

This was changed last October or thereabouts specifically to permit achievment of Continuous Descent Approaches.

You will find the reference in the ENR section of the UK AIP somewhere around page 1-1-3-1 if my memory serves me correctly.
