The UK's approach, as expressed in the 2016 IP[1] Act, is not to 
prohibit CGN, but require operators to log who was using which IP, when.

This is exactly the same as when Internet access was primarily by 
dial-up to banks of modems, and customers shared the IP Address of the 
modem. The ISPs were expected to log who had been online at a specific 
IP address at a specific time.
