As the original question has been answered. ..

My CPL is about 7 years old - so was done under JAR.

When the EASA transfer happened, I paid the extra £35 for a separate UK CPL as well as the new EASA one. When I compared the two shiny new licences I noticed that my IR (R) was only listed on the EASA CPL, and not on my UK licence.

I queried that with the CAA who told me that it wasn't listed on the UK CPL as those privileges were automatically embedded in a UK professional licence.

They didn't expand further, and as my IR (R) has always been current since, I've not inquired further.
