Inner and Outer DPC at different levels

Ajjax, good evening.
Short answer is Yes you can.
The trick is to ensure that the DPC is sealed no gaps, otherwise rising damp?
Have a look at the Plastic / bitumen called "Bituthene"
I have used this material extensively and is really good in concrete foundation situations where at times the differences in DPC level can be quite large.

Yes. Your priority is that your new DPC is fitted correctly i.e. at floor level and that it is 150mm above ground level externally. Your new DPM will deal with the (strangely) low DPC on the existing.
