Exhaust heatshield required for MOT?

[Digital]

The heatshield on my 1600 K Caterham decided to make a bid for freedom during a sprint event last year, and due to the added weight I didn't bother to get it reattached at the time. It's now MOT time and I'm wondering if I actually need to get it put back on, as I've seen a few cars without them.

Is this required for an MOT, and if so how can it be reattached given the brackets have all detached from the exhaust itself?

Thanks!
