Given the pleaded case, declarations about clause 7(h) would directly affect the rights and liabilities of the bodies corporate (by altering their practical powers and duties and the ability of titleholders to act), r 4.56 imposes a low/flexible threshold for joinder, and therefore the High Court correctly ordered the bodies corporate joined as defendants.
