Hi sorry for delayed update - I thought this had been moved to the professional gas forum, not the Arms...

Anyway, the update is that incredibly my mother has got in touch with the RGI and he has replied to the effect that, while, yes there is a clearance issue and she needs to move the shelves in any case, he isn't happy putting his name to a Gas Safety Certificate on that cooker (without failsafe devices) knowing that the house is going to be let. Seeing as the meter is a of the prepayment type, I can't really say I blame him.
