- On the receipt of intimation of the arrival of clothing from contractors, the Armed Inspector or the Reserve officer shall be deputed to take delivery. He shall have the packages weighed in the presence of the authority giving delivery, and if on comparison with the way-bill or railway receipt, it is found that the weight is short, a note shall be made on the way-bill or receipt, which shall be duly attested by both parties. The packages shall also be carefully examined before delivery is taken, especially in the rains, etc. If it is found that any are damaged owing to defective packing, the fact shall be at once brought to the notice of the Superintendent.
