Hi all! Quick question!

We have our planning but haven't put in our commencement notice yet. In our planning we have a 120mm cavity with 100mm insulation and a 50mm insulated slab on the inside. Would it be much hassle to change it so all the insulation is in the cavity and have the inner block as a sort of thermal conductor.

And I we do go for this would 150mm insulation still suffice or would we need more?
