advice on termination before serving entire notice period
I'd like to take stock with this trusted body and communicate to client then to agent. I am a little over 1.5 months into a 6 month contract via an agency. My schedule requires an equal 1 month notice to serve agency or to MyLtdCo.
Unfortunately, my circumstances have changed and I need to move back to the USA for family reasons by no later than 12-APR. To-date I've completed all client deliverables, but could stay-on till 31-MAR or till a replacement found (sooner).
I've never done this, and my statement above is too wholly to say to client, but want to ensure each party finds appropriate ground. I want to set a definitive date in-stone with the client of 25-MAR (who I think will be amenable) and minimise impact of any payment issues or breach of service with agency.
There's a substitute / sub-contract clause, subject to client 'agreement' on an eligible candidate, but everyone I know with my skill set is in-contract or about to-be.
What's the best way in handling this with client and subsequently the agency (does client need to communicate agreement to agency or I do that on their behalf)?
Apologies, if I sound a bit loose here, but as you might imagine other scenarios are playing on my mind.
Thanks,

"An amount equal to the number of days in the notice period multiplied by the daily rate specified in the Schedule attached will be payable by the Consultancy to the Employment Business in the event that the Consultancy terminates the supply before the end of the agreed contract period without giving the required notice specified in the Schedule attached (unless in the event of said contractual breach the Client requests the Employment Business in writing to waive the corresponding liability on the part of the Consultancy)."
