The living room had been used for sleeping purposes and the gas fitter capped off the gas fire temporarily using the pedestal valve.Is it safe to open up the valve using a screwdriver as one would do with a service valve on the cold feed?

I was informed by the fitter that it was illegal to have a gas fire in a room where someone slept.The room is now reverted to a lounge and so the fire may be used again safely.Was I misinformed?

I would advice the fire is given a gas safety check before it's returned to use.
