The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) has put in place an exemption from the requirement to perform a prior notification of specified work under the Ionising Radiations Regulations 1999 where the only work with ionising radiations is the handling, use, holding, storage, transport and disposal of lamps containing Kr-85.
This exemption is conditional and only applies where the total radioactive content of Kr-85 in lamps at premises under the control of the radiation employer or in a vehicle under the control of the radiation employer is 200 MBq or less (<2E+08 Bq Kr-85). 200 MBq Kr-85 equates to about 40,000 lamps so if you only have a few Kr-85 lamps then the exemption is likely to apply to your business.
A copy of the exemption certificates covering the UK are available below:

“The Ionising Radiations Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2000 Certificate of Exemption No 1 of 2013”
