45.—(1) If the court is informed by the prosecutor that no other cases have been set down for trial at the sitting in respect of which the application for postponement of the trial diet is made and has granted the application under section 77A(2), the court shall make an order authorising—
(a)if citations have been issued to jurors for the original diet, the issue to those jurors of intimations that they are not required to attend at the original diet, but are required to attend at the new diet;
(b)if such citations have not been issued, the issue to the jurors shown on the original list of jurors of citations requiring them to attend at the new diet.
(2) If the court is informed by the prosecutor that other cases have been set down for trial at that sitting and has granted the application under section 77A(2), the court shall, in fixing a new trial diet, have regard to the time required to issue citations to such jurors on the list of jurors as have not been summoned under section 97 for the sitting in which the new diet is being fixed and are required to be summoned by reason of the granting of the application.

(a)the court is of opinion that the original diet should not proceed, and
(b)the court has been informed that a warrant has been issued under section 69 for a subsequent sitting of the court within the period mentioned in relation to that court in section 77,
