That is more or less what I assumed from the comment, although I did not know the downlighter was in a ceiling void directly below the roof. I also made the assumption that the downlighter can vent freely to the space above the ceiling. In that case, the lamp heats the air above it, which rises. That draws more air in from the room, creating a rising column of air. The column will be wider than the fitting, so some of the rising air will hit the ceiling around the fitting. If that is cooler than the dew point of the rising air, you will get condensation around the fitting. If insulation has been cut back to avoid it impinging on the fitting, the ceiling around the fitting might well be cold enough.
I would not expect that to be a direct result of the lamp, although there could be some secondary effects from drawing moist air into the ceiling void. Fitting a fire resistant enclosure above the fitting ought to cure the first problem and might sort the second.
