anddsuch other rights and liabilities as the Department may determine.<Emphasis>Transfer schemes under Article 69</Emphasis>701A transfer scheme may—adefine the assets and liabilities to be allocated to a particular successor company—iby specifying or describing the assets and liabilities in question;iiby referring to all the assets and liabilities comprised in a specified part of Northern Ireland Electricity's undertaking;

anddmake such supplemental, incidental and consequential provision as Northern Ireland Electricity considers appropriate (including provision specifying the order in which any transfers or transactions are to be regarded as taking effect).2An obligation imposed by a provision included in a transfer scheme under paragraph (1)(c) shall be enforceable by civil proceedings by the other successor company for an injunction or for any other appropriate relief.3A transaction of any description which is effected under such a provision as is mentioned in paragraph (2)—ashall have effect subject to the provisions of any statutory provision which provides for transactions of that description to be registered in any statutory register; butbsubject to that, shall be binding on all other persons, notwithstanding that it would, apart from this paragraph, have required the consent or concurrence of any other person.4Where a lease of any land is granted in pursuance of such a provision as is mentioned in paragraph (2), any right or obligation affecting that land—ashall not become exercisable or enforceable by reason of the grant of the lease;
