If, on the application of the fines officer, it appears to the relevant court—
that P has failed to comply with a work order but has a reasonable excuse for the failure, or
that, because of a change in circumstances since the order was made, P is unlikely to be able to comply with a work order,
the court may revoke the order or postpone the specified date.
The relevant court may of its own motion revoke a work order if it appears to the court that, because of a change in circumstances since the order was made, P is unlikely to be able to comply with the order.
A work order may be revoked under any of sub-paragraphs (1) to (3), or varied under sub-paragraph (2), before the specified date (as well as on or after that date).
Regulations may provide for the fines officer to have the power to issue a summons for the purpose of ensuring that P attends the court to which an application has been made under sub-paragraph (1) or (2).
