I believe the minimum climb and descent rates of 500ft/min are in the UK AIP.
If given a descent or climb with a level by instruction, this removes the minimum climb and descent rate as you can plan whatever rate you like as long as you meet the clearance given. If you cannot,i would expect the pilot to tell ATC.

Hope that helps
