Leave was granted because the authenticity of the audited accounts for 2001–2005 was a live, contested issue justifying a formal challenge under Order 27 r 4(2); the interrogatories were permitted under Order 26 r 4 because they were relevant to explaining discrepancies between trial balances and audited accounts and were not shown to be prejudicial or to necessarily create admissions for limitation purposes; the supplemental witness statements were permitted because the alleged loans were relevant to the issues in dispute. Costs were awarded to the Wu Yi Parties on an order nisi basis.
