yes but fit-outs don't need a consent
(exemption 10 schedule 1 interior alteration to non residential building (as long as non structural, does not modify specified system,not fire separation or a masonry wall))
If you knew upgrade was onerous you might make sure a consent was not required or even make it a condition of consent. I know of at least 1 circa 1965 hotel that the owners have resisted any consents for this very reason.
