We are happy with insurance and will cover the costs. Our solicitor says that as he is on the bank conveyancing panel he must check that the lender is happy with this solution.

The UK Finance Lenders’ Handbook conditions require your lawyer to disclose issues such as defects will the lease so that the mortgage company can be afforded the opportunity to check with their valuer as to the extent that the value of the property is affected .
