I am getting closer to an exchange on a flat in Grenoside and my parents have sent the 10% deposit to my conveyancing practitioner. I am now told that as the deposit has been sent from someone other than me my conveyancing practitioner needs to make a notification to my bank. Apparently, 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 disclosed to the mortgage company regarding my parents' contribution when I applied for the home loan, so is it really necessary for him to raise this?

The conveyancer is duty bound to clarify with lender to ensure that they understand that the balance of the purchase price is not from your own resources. The solicitor can only disclose this to your mortgage company if you permit them to, failing which, your lawyer must cease to continue acting.
