What they require is for you to "register" your nameservers so that they are
designated as such.  When you do this, you must specify the hostnames and
the IP addresses.  Without doing so, you won't be able to use your
nameservers.  It's not just UKReg that insist this - it's required for all
registrars (AFAIK).

They surely must have a mechanism to register new name servers?

nameservers

I know that 123-reg.co.uk can do this, you specify the nameservers and their
IP addresses during the transfer and everything is handled for you.
