Being stabilized at 1000ft (or 500ft) only means that you must be fully configured for landing, flying at VAPP + (whatever speed margin your SOP gives you), following a reasonable glidepath, and with all your checklists completed.
It does not preclude you from maneuvering towards the runway.
Stabilization criteria must also include a maximum bank angle value below 1000ft and/or 500ft and/or 400 ft for circlings.
I am quite sure Paro has an extensive ground training program with additional crew briefings where all those matters are considered.
