You only normally PVA new plaster if you are tiling. Otherwise the plaster draws all the moisture and adhesive out of the tile adhesive and they end up in the bath (if in a bathroom) or on the floor the following morning.

As said above lining paper is only to cover a crappy finish either in an old building or a shoddy plasterer
