I. WHEREAS the sudder station of the Board of Revenue for the Central
Provinces has been removed from Patna to Allahabad, and the charge of
the custom-house established at the former station has been vested in the
superintendent of the salt chokies in Behar, which ofhcer is subordinate to
the Board of Customs, Salt, and Opium at the presidency; and other
circumstances appear to render it expedient to transfer to the last-men-
tioned Board the superintendence of the said custom-house, with the same
powers and authority in regard to the customs and town duties, as are now
possessed and exercised by the Central Board of Revenue : and whereas,
with the view of establishing an uniform and efficient system of audit, it
appears further to be expedient to modify the system according to which the
operations of the several other custom-houses in the Central and Western
Provinces and in Cuttack, touching the collection of the custom duties,
are now superintended and controlled, by vesting in the Board of Customs
at the presidency authority to superintend and regulate the management
of the several custom-houses aforesaid, in concurrence with the Boards and
Commissioner to whom the collectors in the said provinces are now sub-
ject ; the following rules have been enacted, to be in force from the date
of tbeir promulgation.
II. So much of Regulations IX- and X. 1810, Regulation III. 1822,
and of any other Regulation in force as vests the Boards of Revenue in
the Central and Western Provinces, and the Commissioner of Cuttack,
with the control over the custom-houses in the said provinces, is hereby
declared subject to the following modifications.
See Act III. The Board of Revenue in the Central Provinces shall, from the
xLiv. i8o0. of the promulgation of this Regulation, cease to exercise any autho-
rity over the collector of customs and town duties at Patna; and the
Board of 6VV0772.S' at the presidency shall be vested with the duties,
powers, and authority now possessed and exercised by the Central Board
in regard to the said custom-house, and to all persons and things charge-
abie with customs or ?27W72 duties at that place, or subject to the authority
or liable to the process of the collector thereof.
