When I re-wired my house I put 1.5mm in for all the lighting. Insulation bury is one consideration but the regulations indicate that provided it is nailed back to a joist its OK for usual load. 1.5mm will be under less strain compared to 1mm and for the extra cost its worth it. Nice and easy to work with as well.
I'd always use 240v lights as well, its easier to wire and a LOT cheaper!
