You need a fuel cap with some form of locking. Either the flap locking, or the actual cap, so probably.
As for the handbrake, one of the cars at work has a handbrake light that's on some of the time, and it passed.

A couple of posts saying about the fuel cap.
TBH, I wouldn't really want my fuel cap accessible while I was away from the car anyway mate. Don't trust the people round here, they're all pikies.
