The court ordered the solicitors on record (RSRB) to disclose the identity of the funder of the 5th defendant's costs because (1) the information is critical to the plaintiff's reasonably arguable intended application for a non‑party costs order under s52A(2), (2) the identity is not privileged, and (3) disclosure of identity alone is proportionate; further disclosure was refused at this stage and the separate summons for broader funding documents was dismissed.
