Clause 2 of the settlement deed imposed a contractual obligation of good faith cooperation including clarification of information; the plaintiff demonstrated that specified banking and Forsyth Barr brokerage records and certain third-party transaction records are necessary to implement the settlement and verify realisations; defendants had no tenable defence to disclosure of those specified documents and summary orders for disclosure were appropriate, while other broader or premature requests were dismissed; costs awarded to plaintiff on a 2B scale reduced by 10% with disbursements.
