"Fuel Emergency", or "minimum fuel" as you referred to, has no status in the UK. Guidance in UK AIC P045/2009.....[p is for pink]. AIC is Aeronautical Information Circular. Check out NATS | AIS

The basic ICAO definition of "minimum fuel" is as follows (taken from Doc 4444):
Minimum fuel. The term used to describe a situation in which an aircraft's fuel supply has reached a state where little or no delay can be accepted.
Note.-This is not an emergency situation but merely indicates that an emergency situation is possible, should any undue delay occur.
