In a double derivative action the nominal company, if properly a party at the interlocutory stage, is presumptively required to give discovery under RHC O 24 r 2; the court's discretion to limit or refuse discovery should be exercised only where discovery is unnecessary to dispose fairly of the action or to save costs, and those grounds were not established here, so discovery must be ordered and a list of documents provided within 28 days.
