Me and my partner are soon to complete buying a house in Merseyside but as a consequence of damage from the recent storms I have managed to agree recompense from the seller in the sum of three thousand pounds taking the form of a adjustment in the price. I had intended this to be dealt with as part of the conveyancing process but Clydesdale will not agree to this. Should they have been involved?

Any conveyancing practitioner being on a Clydesdale conveyancing panel is obliged to advise Clydesdale of any amendments to the sale price. If you were to refuse your property lawyer to notify the reduction to Clydesdale then they would have to discontinue acting for you. In addition, Clydesdale and you would have to appoint a new property lawyer for your conveyancing in Merseyside.
