Building Regulation Compliance Certificate - Boiler

We're currently selling our house and our solicitor has asked for the Building Regulation Compliance Certificate. We were never provided with one and today we had a plumber issue us with a Home Owner Gas Safety Record.
But the solicitor still wants this certificate which we don't have and I don't think it's possible to get one if done from 2007.
What are my options?
Thank you!
The certificate you have obtained is far more useful than the compliance certificate would have been from 11 years ago. Your certificate confirms the *current* status of the boiler and gas installation in the property.
As for the pointless indemnity policy the buyers mortgage company will insist on - it comes down to how important the cost of it is to you and the buyer, in the grand scheme of a house purchase/sale. You could ask them to pay for it. Or maybe split the difference.0
