As a follow up tried it with 2.1.3 and it seems to have been successful.

I have subsequently found my problem was due to files defined with different drawing units – one in mm and the other in metres.  Changed the file defined as mm to metres and was able to successfully copy information from one file to the other (which was my original objective) with the elements getting pasted into the correct position.

It seems the copy command doesn’t consider the drawing unit of the each file and solely works on the coordinates at the time of using copy.
