Cables within stud walls

Hi All,

Wondering if I can get some advice. Basically I’m having exposed joist ceilings in my house and I’m in the process of slowly changing all the cables over to new.

Currently I have 2 sockets within the lounge area chased into the brick plaster walls however I’m potentially looking to transfer over onto a stud wall. Basically the stud walls are insulated with space roll insulation which then had plasterboard sitting ontop.

Would it be possible to drop the cables behind the plasterboard infront of the space insulation or would this come up as a potential issue for fire ect. Cannot think of any other alternatives apart as I don’t want to be removing wall areas
