45. Temporary public ownership: property transfer

(1) This section applies where the Treasury have made a share transfer order, in respect of securities issued by a bank, in accordance with section 13(2) ("the original order").

(2) The Treasury may make one or more property transfer orders.

(3) A property transfer order is an order which -

(a) provides for property, rights or liabilities of the bank to be transferred (whether accruing or arising before or after the original order);

(b) makes other provision for the purposes of, or in connection with, the transfer of property, rights or liabilities of the bank (whether the transfer has been or is to be effected by the order or otherwise).

(4) Sections 7, 8 and 9 do not apply to a property transfer order.

(5) A property transfer order is to be treated -

(a) in the same way as a share transfer order for the procedural purposes of section 25, but

(b) as a property transfer instrument for all other purposes (including for the purposes of the application of powers under this Part).
