Hi Ian, Short answer is no.. New cables must always be routed in straight lines in the prescribed zones. Routing gas and electric next to each other is a no no irrespective of what it is covered with. The installation of a new cooker circuit would come under works requiring to be notified to building control and correctly tested and certified, if you were unaware of this then I suggest you contact a qualified electrician to undertake the routing, testing and certification. I hope that helps Regards Steve
