(a)for the transfer of property or liabilities which would not otherwise be capable of being transferred or assigned;
(b)for a transfer of property or liabilities to take effect as if there were—
(i)no such requirement to obtain a person’s consent or concurrence, and
(ii)no such contravention, liability or interference with any interest or right,
as there would otherwise be (in the case of a transfer apart from this section) by reason of any provision falling within subsection (2B).
(2B) A provision falls within this subsection to the extent that it has effect (whether under an enactment or agreement or otherwise) in relation to the terms on which the authorised person concerned is entitled to the property or subject to the liabilities in question.

(a)to terminate, modify, acquire or claim an interest or right; or
