Regulation 10 Perishable property

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of these Regulations, if any property held by an operator or his representative under these Regulations appears to such operator or representative to be of a perishable nature, and if, within 48 hours from the time when it was found, it has not been claimed and proved to the satisfaction of such operator or representative to be owned by a person who has paid the charge payable under Regulation 8 and taken delivery of the property, then the property shall thereupon vest in the operator who may destroy or otherwise dispose of it as he thinks fit.

Provided that any property which is, or which becomes, objectionable may be destroyed or disposed of at any time in the discretion of the operator or his representative having custody of it.
