When I reposition my ceiling light fitting must I attach to a batten
spanning 2 joists or can I fix a batten to the topside of the
plasterboard ceiling.

Depends on how heavy it is.

I will try first if space allows to fit to joists, otherwise a batten to
the topside of plasterboard.

Bog standard light fitting nothing elaborate.
