However, the collecting bank must advise without delay the bank from which the collection instruction was received of any such action taken.

Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-article 10 (a), where the goods are consigned to or the order of the collecting bank and the drawee has honoured the collection by payment, acceptance or other terms and conditions, and the collecting bank arranges for the authorized the collecting bank to do so.

a.撇开第十款1、条的规定，如果货物是以代收行作为收货人或抬头人，而且付款人已对该项托收办理了付款、承兑或承诺了其他条件和条款，代收行因此对货物的交付作了安排时，应认为寄单行已授权代收行如此办理。
