Part P without joining a scheme?

Here's a link someone posted previously, 'Electrician Competence Recognition', for LBC guidance. You can download the IET-BCA Guidance document apparently. Never tried it myself, but may be worth a look?

I have a possible job coming up where a neighbour of mine in Scotland is buying a property in England.
Its a flat, and he thinks it needs a full rewire. Until I've seen it, I cant say what all needs done.
Since starting self employed, I haven't joined a scheme yet as the costs are too much at the moment.
TBH I haven't a clue about the Part P except that its required in England.
A few questions, which may have been answered on previous threads so apologies if you're repeating yourselves.

Do I have to join a scheme to be able to use Part P? And will the Scottish Select scheme be allowed? (on the Scotland side, many places only accept Select or NICEIC, none of the others)

Who's responsibility is it to notify the council? Mine, or the homeowners.

Will it be included in any other building works he has to notify?

If there is no notification from either of us to the council, what can be the consequences? Its not a new build, but I am essentially replacing all the electrical system.

Can I get some serious responses and less anti-scots comments. At least until I get a few answers

Don't bother joining a scheme, just rewire the house and say it was like this when you bought it

That's a possibility. They're buying in it in god knows what state, but he says the decoration is "very eighties"
