Parallel runway ops

Ok, so ICAO Doc.9643 defines the procedures for operations on parallel runways.

My question is - at what point are parallel runways no longer a factor to each other?

When defining Mode 1 and 2 operations for simultaneous approaches it specifies certain radar performance requirements for runways separated by 1525m or more, and then goes on to state that one of the missed approaches is required to execute a turn of 30 deg or more.

But at what point would these widely spaced runways cease to be considered as a pair?

Any ideas?
