I am now told that as the deposit has not come from me my solicitor needs to make a notification to my mortgage company. I am advised that, in also acting for the bank he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the bank concerning my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really appropriate for this now to be an issue?

The lawyer is obliged to clarify with lender to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only notify this to your bank if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
