549.(1) Where a dispute relating to salvage has been determined summarily in
manner provided by this Act, any party aggrieved by the decision may appeal
therefrom

(b)in Ireland, to the High Court, but only if the sum in dispute exceeds fifty
pounds, and the appellant within ten days after the date of the award gives
notice to the arbitrators of his intention to appeal and, within twenty days
after the date of the award, takes such proceedings as, according to the
practice of the High Court, are necessary for the institution of an appeal.

(2) In the case of an appeal from arbitrators in Ireland the arbitrators shall
transmit to the proper officer of the court of appeal a copy on unstamped
paper certified under their hands to be a true copy of the proceedings had
before them or their umpire (if any) and of the award so made by them or him,
accompanied with their or his certificate in writing of the gross value of the
article respecting which salvage is claimed; and such copy and certificate
shall be admitted in the court of appeal as evidence in the case.
