Thanks for the help with the problem of getting page-turns and number of pages as I want them.
\override Score-NonMusicalPaperColumn.page-turn-permission = #ff seems to work as required. Unfortunately, putting 'page-count = 12' in the \paper block of the relevant part did not solve the problem of an unnecessary 13th page being printed. However, I tried using \override Score-NonMusicalPaperColumn.page-break-permission = #ff and specifying where not only page-turns but all page-breaks should come. This did enable me to force the whole final passage of music to be printed on page 12 only.
