Sections 33 and 34 of the Senior Courts Act 1981 and Sections 52 and 53 of the County Courts Act 1984 give the court powers, exercisable before commencement of proceedings, in relation to disclosure, and the power to make an order against a non-party for disclosure of documents and inspection of property. The general rule is that the court will award the person against whom the order is sought, his costs of the application and of complying with any order which is made. If however that party has unreasonably opposed the application or failed to comply with any relevant pre-action protocol the court may well make a different order (CPR 46.1).
