Provided that no two such lesser periods shall be
aggregated for this purpose if the period between the

second is more than fourteen or thirty days, as the
case may be.
(7) For the purposes of subparagraph (3), a person

facie to be new and reasonable grounds for the
detention, but the giving of any such report shall be
without prejudice to the provisions of subparagraphs
