Proximity of Gas pipe to Hot water Pipe

[Hwang2000]

Hi.
Currently getting a wood burning stove put in and it has a back boiler. All the old pipework is being replaced and its been discovered that the gas pipe runs up next to where the old back boiler pipes are.

Before I bought the house the back boiler in the fire, it had already been removed. So I really don't know if they have ever been used together. Pipe supplies my home boiler so I do need it.

The closest pipe to the gas pipe would be the cooler return pipe to back boiler, I'm still not so happy with the "it will be ok" reply I get from fitter. Does anyone know how close I can have a back boiler pipe to a gas pipe in mm so I can check the distance is ok.

Is the fitter Gas Safe registered?

No they are just open fire fitters, do not do gas. pipe run is about 2meters together. I know back boilers you can get the water to 100C, so I do want it to be safe
