More out of interest as I am not a business customer - but may change - is there a separate queue in the faults reporting system or do they also have the present 5 day delay before it is picked up

I may have answered my own question
Enhanced Care
With Enhanced Care, any faults a customer reports are prioritised by our support team, then fixed and closed within 24 hours (Monday-Friday, 8am-8pm). This includes out-of-hours engineer repair work, where necessary.

Isn't Enhanced Care a chargeable add-on?

Just to clarify - as I wasn't aware that the Residential Support Team were the same as the Faults Team (In fact I thought that they were separate as Faults don't have anything to do with Chat or Phone support and are actually not contactable except via a faults ticket)
Is there a separate Business Support Faults Team

The Residential faults team fall under the Residential Customer Support Centre. The Business support teams would deal with faults/provisions/customer service etc. on Business accounts.
I hope this clears things up.

What Openreach maintenance level does Enhanced care map to? Is it the next working day fix Monday-Saturday or the Same day fix before 1pm Monday-Sunday ?

If you are running a business which depends on Internet connectivity even enhanced care fix time can seem like an eternity. It is worth having a second broadband connection from an alternate supplier. Aside from the second rental, you'll need to spend a bit extra for your dual port firewall router, but it will often keep you going while your primary supplier fixes the problem. It won't however protect your connection if the local telephone exchange gets flooded/burns down as both links are likely to be housed in the same building.
It all comes down to risk/benefit cost analysis. Will you stay in business if you lose Internet connectivity for a few days?
