The Building Societies (Transfer of Business) Regulations 1998
These Regulations replace the previous transfer regulations revoked by regulation 10. They prescribe certain matters connected with the transfer of the property, rights and liabilities of a building society to a company which may, by virtue of sections 97(3) and (12) of the Building Societies Act 1986 (“the Act”), be either a company specially formed by the society (and by no others than its nominees) for the purpose of assuming and conducting its business in its place or an existing company carrying on business as a going concern.
