In what way does my ID and proof of funds have anything to do with my conveyancing in Brent Park? Why is this being asked of me?
Anti-terror and anti-money-laundering laws require solicitors and licensed conveyancers to verify the identity of the person or body they are dealing with before they can accept their conveyancing business. The Client Care letter that you are required to sign should stipulate this. Your lender will also require certain documents to be viewed. If you refuse to provide identification documents, your solicitor will not be able to take you on as a client.

It sounds as though you may have a conveyancing firm currently acting for you. What do they say? You should check with your lawyer before you do anything. It is very possible that once the local authority has been informed of a potential issue it cannot be insured against (a bit like being diagnosed with a serious illness and then taking out health insurance to cover that same ailment)
