An order for inspection of property is considered appropriate primarily in circumstances where it helps clarify issues in the litigation. This is essential as the inspection can provide critical evidence or insights that may assist in resolving factual disputes or understanding the context around the legal matters at hand. The court aims to ensure that all relevant facts are brought to light, and an inspection can often play a pivotal role in achieving that clarity.

While ensuring that there is no negative impact on the defendant's rights and whether all parties agree can be important considerations, these factors alone do not suffice to justify an order for inspection. The primary purpose of such an order is to aid in the litigation process, making the clarification of issues a paramount reason for its appropriateness. Complete prevention of risks does not directly relate to the necessity or relevance of the inspection in supporting the litigation objectives.
