Yes the ring final in my house is predominantly 1.0mm² cpcs and I have added to it. It needs to satisfy adabatic requirements but it should do unless protected by a BS3036 30A fuse.
 
You can add to a circuit that already uses it, but not with the old cable, and the existing 1.0mm2 cpc should be noted in the paperwork.
The old cable should not be used for a new spur.
