Abstract
Let be a nilpotent group normal in a group . Suppose that acts transitively upon the points of a finite non-Desarguesian projective plane . We prove that, if has square order, then must act semi-regularly on . In addition we prove that if a finite non-Desarguesian projective plane admits more than one nilpotent group which is regular on the points of then has non-square order and the automorphism group of has odd order.
