Question "Speed Restrictions"???

Hi, I'm intersted to know, from aircrew in particular, what exactly is being asked when the question "Any speed restriction?" is posed during descent. I'm particularly interested in circumstances when the descent is being made outside Class A airspace, into Newcastle or Teeside, for example. What speed profile would you use if you recieved a "No restriction" reply while descending through FL240 towards Newcastle from POL?

I'm not after having a 'dig' at aircrew, I believe there may be some missunderstanding amongst controllers at our unit.

Many Thanks,
Hippy.
