Pretty confusing post, but if you are just using a 13amp socket for the igniter of your new gas cooker then thats fine and you don't have to do anything with the old cooker feed.I think that answers your question though not sure what the question was.
 
that has answerd one question the other three quires are when buying a new gas cooker range duel fuel what electrics are required ie 30amp its more of a location problem my 30amp isolating switch is on the oposite wall can i just plug the new cooker in to socket on the wall in my new locaton i get the bit about igniter is there anything else i need to be aware of as i have only had a gas cooker and 13amp plug for the igniter so iam going with a gas hob and electric oven which is fan driven if iam not mistaken thanks for bearing with me

Depends on the oven rating. if it is a fan oven with no other elements then a 13 A plug should be sufficient (element rating 2500w or less).

If it is a twin oven or an oven and grill you will need a seperate cooker circuit (like you already have but on the wrong wall) bear in mind that some cookers will require 45 A supply 'again depends on type' best to read up on the ratings.
