Subsection (1) does not apply to compensation for any specimen or item for which a person has been compensated under section 27 or 28.
The amount of compensation payable for the loss or damage shall be determined by agreement between the applicant and the Council or, if agreement cannot be reached within a reasonable time, by the summary court on the application of either the applicant or the chairman of the Council.
