Section 307

Where any dispute as to salvage arises, the receiver of the district where the property is in respect of which the salvage claim is made may, on the application of either party, appoint a valuer to value that property, and shall give copies of the valuation to both parties.

Any copy of the valuation purporting to be signed by the valuer, and to be certified as a true copy by the receiver, shall be admissible as evidence in any subsequent proceeding.

Such fee as the Authority directs shall be paid in respect of the valuation by the person applying for the valuation.[329
