Default Windscreen damage for MoT test

Have just looked at buying a replacement Volvo 240 for mine. However, it has been off the road for over a year and the windscreen perimeter has that foggy milky appearance all round, implying delamination? Presume damp has affected it, as its at least 1" wide all round. Have looked via the 'net for a verdict of automatic MoT fail, but it isn't mentioned - just chips and cracks.
Has any informed member any legal experience of this, or is it up to the tester on the day? Although from the drivers seat it is clearly visible all round, its presence doesn't worry me, but I don't want to buy a replacement car with the certain additional outlay of some £200 for a new screen.
Advice from a professional tester greatly appreciated.
