Whilst not directly connected to the light fitting, they are still in use within the lighting circuit.

Joe, the answer to your question is a big fat NO!
As Tango130 has already said, those are not redundant cables, so don't go snipping anything at all.
Thought this was worth reiterating if you are still alive.

Greetings,
I need to replace the minging old kitchen light and have bought a shiny new one to replace it.
The new light has a much smaller diameter central section than the old one and as such, the old cables that were newly hidden before are not going to fit in.
My question - can I just cut the old ones (the ones not in use) away and seal off with some insulation tape?
Cheers,
Joe
