My wife and I are only a couple days away from an exchange on a property in Winscombe and my parents have sent the ten percent deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now informed that as the deposit has not arrived from me my conveyancing practitioner needs to disclose this to my bank. Apparently, in also acting for the lender he must inform them that the balance of the purchase price is coming from anyone other than me. I informed the lender regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the mortgage, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

Your solicitor is duty bound to clarify with lender to make sure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own funds. Your solicitor can only disclose this to your bank if you agree, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
