(2) The last registered owner or other person as aforesaid shall, upon service of the said notice upon him, cause delivery to be taken according to the tenor thereof, and shall cause the said notice M.V.I.—4 to be surrendered to the person from whom he takes delivery.
(3) The exercise in respect of any motor-vehicle or equipment by the Impressment Officer or by an officer in charge of a vehicle-collecting centre of the powers conferred upon him by this regulation shall not be deemed to prejudice the power of the Impressment Officer again to impress or reject the same motor-vehicle or equipment.
REGULATION 9.—ENCUMBRANCERS.

(2) Any person having an interest in or who is an encumbrancer of any motor-vehicle or equipment included in such notice shall, within ten days from publication thereof in the Gazette as aforesaid, give written notice of his interest or encumbrance to the Chief Impressment Officer, and shall give in such notice explicit details of the nature of his interest or encumbrance and of the amount he claims to be due to him.
(3) No encumbrancer shall be relieved from observing the requirements of this regulation or be deemed to have acquired any rights to payment or otherwise to have his position improved by reason only of the fact that the registered owner or holder has given, pursuant to Regulation 6, notice in form M.V.I.—2 of any encumbrance.
