Section 824 in Rules under the United Provinces Excise Act, 1910
824. Weighment register [Form P.D.-10].
- Issues by weighment are recorded in the weighment register, the object being to ascertain the contents of each cask or drum as consigned. Before any spirit is put into a drum or cask, the weight of each cask empty with its screw plug or bung should be ascertained and recorded in column 3 of the register. After the cask or drum is filled to the bung, the distiller may be permitted to draw off a measured quantity from the full cask before the bung is finally inserted. In such cases the quantity drawn off should be recorded in column 9. The gross weight of the cask or drum shall then be ascertained and recorded in column 4. The other columns are self-explanatory. Columns 11 and 12 need not be filled in when issues are made in metal drums.
