The Banking (Special Provisions) Bill gives the Treasury the power to order the transfer of property, rights and liabilities from an "authorised UK deposit taker" (a category that includes banks and building societies) to another corporate body of its choosing.[1]
The majority of MPs voted against limiting these powers so they didn't apply to building societies.[2]
Since the legislation was ostensibly for the purpose of nationalizing Northern Rock,[3] which is bank not a building society, questions about why the target was left so wide are legitimate.
