Default Size of waste vent pipe

Is it OK to reduce a 100mm soil pipe serving my toilet bath and wash hand basin to a 50mm up into the loft and then through a vent to outside. This would save me putting in a pipe chase as I could get the 50mm vent pipe up through a stud partition.

I might be clutching at straws but would two 50mm pipes branching from the 100mm be OK. I would then branch back into a 100mm in the loft for ease of fiiting to outsie vent.

you can always have a word with a building inspector at the council.
