Building Survey and Solicitor

[dilemma77]

Hi,

We are in the process of buying an old house and we have just had the building survey completed. The surveyor has clearly written on the report that a copy of the survey should be forwarded to the solicitor, but the solicitor has refused to look at the survey. Just wondering if this is normal practice?

Many thanks
