Additional fixing for PIR to inner leaf?

What are others' thoughts on the efficacy of PIR retaining clips. I have anecdotal evidence from someone about them working lose over time thus leading to draughty gap between inner leaf and PIR.

My wall build up (just starting) is: 100mm Thermalite, 150 gap with 100 PIR batts, 125 cotswold stone. I will say in advance that I have an excellent blockworker who is a stickler for detailing, knocking snots off, etc. He already beat me to the punch on foil taping all PIR joints (assumed I'd have to nudge on that).

I was going to start a convo with him re: sticky foaming the PIR to inner face as they work, as well as the retaining clips on wall ties of course. Overkill?

 

Cheers

Tom
