I believe the key is you must be able to isolate it without first removing it, which you can do if you put a socket in the adjacent unit.
What you described is better but not essential if impractical, as I understand it.

in my apartment the fridge washer and tumble are all next to each other,they are wired with a socket behind each appliance.The new regs would need for these sockets to be able to be isolated without removing the appliances.I couldn't wire a socket in the next cupboard in this instance.
