As I say this varies from council to council. One case which came up on this list a while back was an event facility in North London often used for wedding feasts. I actually queried why this wasn't listed on FHRS with the, as it turned out, wrong, local authority. It was definitely someone else's problem.
I'm aware that many B&Bs are not present in the data in areas of rural Scotland. The recent article in the Guardian covered some of the other reasons why places are not registered. I imagine the FSA would be quite interested in learning anything non-anecdotal about the numbers of establishments which are not registered.
