Fly Leads For Swa On A Metal Clad Db

[Industspark]

Once again after some knowledge from some wise old men.
As per photo, I have been issued from a contractor a C2 for 'The MICC/SWA or earth bar cables earth system is incorrectly connected.'
I have 26 metal clad consumer units with this C2 where the earth tag has been fitted with nut & bolt. However, because there's not fly lead going to the earth bar as the top of DB can be removed using tools,they've not specified a regulation but say it's incorrectly fitted.
Others include the earth stud not being connected, which I believe is there for bonding not to connect main earth to.

My question is, If its a metal clad DB are fly leads required( what reg) if the lid is designed with removable top surface with use of a tool.( nut & bolted)?
Many of the installations were constructed to BS 7671 15th & 16th edition.

or/and make some short earth links up and connect each banjo together, no powering down, cheap easy fix, just do it for god sake!

What happened to the quote?

no powering down

Depending on the prospective fault current available at the distribution board that may not be a good idea.
