Hi, such conflicting advice, can anyone advise on whether a propane gas bottle should be 3 metres away from the actual bitumen heater and what regs this is under. The reason is that I am attempting to purchase some and the supplier has a built in cradle which is only 1 metre away from the boiler and they arent aware of any regs?

HSG33 actually says
Set up the gas cylinder at least 3 m away from the boiler during use, unless a
suitable protective shield is fitted.
Perhaps the cradle meets this requirement

RP thanks for that link, had quite a chuckle.
The author of the document clearly knows his likely audience well. Personal favourites were :-
"A thermostat is an aid to safety – it does not remove the need for all usual safety precautions – its not some kind of magic box !"
and
"THE BEST SAFETY IS COMMON SENSE -
DON'T LEAVE YOURS IN THE VAN"
