(1)Without prejudice to the generality of section 423, an order made under that section with respect to a transaction may (subject as follows)—
(a)require any property transferred as part of the transaction to be vested in any person, either absolutely or for the benefit of all the persons on whose behalf the application for the order is treated as made;
