People seem to get a bit confused with these surveys, they are a basically 'recommendations' not legal requirements.
Sure, the wiring may well benefit from being bang up to date, but it's highly unlikely it's unsafe (unless that's what they've determined).

Bit like coming in and saying, oh, that TV is 1 year old now, you can get better one now ….. yah, sure !
