If they are fitted as standard equipment on the vehicle, then yes i believe they must work.

Ok thanks, I just had an idea that as fog lights are not mandatory they could be not working.

As far as I am aware front foglights are not "Obligatory Lights" therefore do not form part of the MOT unlike the rear one which does.
