  "text": "(1) Subject to the following provisions of this article, when the Authority has issued a levy for a financial year under this Order (originally or by way of substitution) it may issue a levy in substitution.\n(2) Except as provided by paragraph (3) below, no levy may be issued in substitution if the amount of the levy issued in substitution (the “new levy”) would be greater than the amount of the levy for which it is substituted (the “old levy”) or if the total amount of the levies issued for the relevant year would be greater than the total amount of the levies approved by the Secretary of State or issued under paragraph 3(1) or (2) of Schedule 3 to the 1997 Act.\n(3) The amount of the new levy may be greater than the amount of the old levy if—\n(a) the old levy, or the total amount of the levies issued for the relevant year, has been quashed because of a failure to fulfil the requirements of Schedule 3 or this Order; or\n(b) the new levy is required to be increased to effect a proper apportionment.\n(4) If the amount of the old levy exceeds that of the new levy, the following shall apply as regards anything paid if it would not have been paid had the amount of the old levy been the same as that of the new levy—\n(a) it shall be repaid if the police authority by whom it was paid so requires;\n(b) in any other case it shall (as the Authority determines) either be repaid or be credited against any subsequent liability of the police authority in respect of any levy issued by the Authority.",
