Plinth bricks and cement mortar

We have a course of blue engineering plinth bricks at the bottom of the timber cladding on the garage. There is to be some 'lead' flashing, but should the mortar used with the plinth bricks be M12 for waterproofing? I think I read somewhere that's what is done with creasing tile sills and copings.

 

Brickie has used M4, but I could ask him to rake out and repoint, sooner rather than later.
