Section 30: Bridge bank: share transfers
83.Where the Bank of England has made a property transfer instrument to effect the bridge bank stabilisation option, it may make bridge bank share transfer instruments. These may provide for two things: first, for securities issued by the bridge bank to be transferred; and, second, for other provision in relation to the securities of the bridge bank. Thus the Bank of England may transfer the securities of a bridge bank.
84.The general and specific conditions (sections 7 and 8, respectively) do not apply and subsection (5) provides that the Bank of England must consult the Treasury and the FSA before making the instrument.
85.Subsection (6) provides that the Bank of England may make a supplemental share transfer instrument (as described in section 26) following the making of a bridge bank share transfer instrument.
