Only for vehicles needing an emissions test, so petrols.
The diesels do still have a cat (its not a DPF on an XUD/HDi its still a cat) however, as they do not need an emissions test, the presence of a cat is not checked for these vehicles. They must just pass the smoke test.
I specifically asked VOSA about this when decatting the Golf.
