First contact HMLR to make sure that this person is in fact the new freeholder. You do not need to incur the fees of a Oval conveyancing lawyer to do this as you can do this on the Land Registry website for a few pound.

Following a vesting order by West London County Court the Leasehold Valuation Tribunal concluded that the price to be paid for the extended lease of the premises was Thirteen Thousand Two hundred pounds (£13,200) in accordance with the valuation. The extended lease was granted for a term of 90 years from the expiry date of the Lease and at a peppercorn ground rent from the date of the vesting order. This case affected 1 flat.

We are expecting to complete on the purchase a property in Oval but as a result of wreckage from the recent storms I have negotiated recompense from the vendor of £2k taking the form of a deduction in the price. I had intended this to be addressed as part of the conveyancing process but my bank will not permit this. Why were they informed?

Any solicitor being on the mortgage company approved list is required to inform the mortgage company of any changes to the sale price. If you prohibit your solicitor to report the reduction to your lender then they would need to disinstructing themselves from representing you and the mortgage company.
