Electrical safety - what do I need to let?

I have just had some work done on the electrics at my flat which I will soon be letting. I have had an electrical installation certificate for various works - circuit boards and fuse boards changed, and some sockets moved in the kitchen. Plus I have a part p certificate as it was registered with the council.

Do I still need to have an electrical installation condition report (EICR - previously a periodic inspection)?

Thank you.

    Not a legal requirement but how much would it cost ?
    Lasts 5/10 years and gives you peace of mind should the worst happen
    Fancy defending yourself in court if property burnt to the ground or fire and insurance claim

    No, you need no electrical certificates to let a property.
