(3) If the court makes an order under paragraph (2), it must specify the date when the Part 36 offer is to be treated as having been made.

(Rule 36.17(7) deals with the costs consequences following judgment of an offer which is withdrawn.)
(3) Subject to rule 36.10, such notice of withdrawal or change of terms takes effect when it is served on the offeree.

(a)the offeror may withdraw the offer or change its terms without the permission of the court; or
(b)the offer may be automatically withdrawn in accordance with its terms.
(5) Where the offeror changes the terms of a Part 36 offer to make it more advantageous to the offeree—

(b)if the offeree serves notice of acceptance of the original offer before the expiry of the relevant period, that acceptance has effect unless the offeror applies to the court for permission to withdraw the offer or to change its terms—
(i)within 7 days of the offeree’s notice of acceptance; or
(ii)if earlier, before the first day of trial.
(3) On an application under paragraph (2)(b), the court may give permission for the original offer to be withdrawn or its terms changed if satisfied that there has been a change of circumstances since the making of the original offer and that it is in the interests of justice to give permission.]
