Battening wall - can I chase first?

Thanks. In the end I went for the following:

From Insulation express:
Marmox board - lots of 12.5mm x 600mm x 1250mm

From Pureadhesion.com:
38mm Self Drilling Screws Zinc Plated - (Approx. 200)
Marmox Reinforcing Joint Tape 90 LM
Marmox / Jackoboard Metal Fixing Washers 37mm Approx. 100
Aquafix Self Adhesive Waterproof Tape 20m x 100mm wide - TRADE ROLL
Marmox Multibond - High Performance White Sealant & Adhesive - 300ml - to seal boards prior to using the tape and also use on the floor - no tape as not a wet room.

Now - I know the waterproof tape is not Marmox brand but I was assured it would work and it's basically the same thing surely? (hopefully!!!).

I decided to batten out the whole thing in the end - will lose some space but when it comes to doing it all over the walls will thank me for it!
