(3)On an application made under subsection (1) above and after hearing both the offender and the supervising officer, the court may by order, if it appears to it in the interests of justice to do so—
(a)vary the order by—

(ii)inserting further requirements or provisions; or
(iii)subject to subsection (4) below, increasing or decreasing the treatment and testing period; or
(b)revoke the order.
(4)The power conferred by subsection (3)(a)(iii) above shall not be exercised so as to increase the treatment and testing period above the maximum for the time being specified in section 234B(2)(a) of this Act, or to decrease it below the minimum so specified.
(5)Where the court, on the application of the supervising officer, proposes to vary (otherwise than by deleting a requirement or provision) a drug treatment and testing order, sections 234B(5) and 234D(1) of this Act shall apply to the variation of such an order as they apply to the making of such an order.
(6)If an offender fails to appear before the court after having been cited in accordance with subsection (2) above, the court may issue a warrant for his arrest.
(1)A drug treatment and testing order shall—
(a)provide for the order to be reviewed periodically at intervals of not less than one month;
(b)provide for each review of the order to be made, subject to subsection (5) below, at a hearing held for the purpose by the appropriate court (a “review hearing”);
(c)require the offender to attend each review hearing;
(d)provide for the supervising officer to make to the court, before each review, a report in writing on the offender’s progress under the order; and
(e)provide for each such report to include the test results communicated to the supervising officer under section 234C(7)(c) of this Act and the views of the treatment provider as to the treatment and testing of the offender.
(2)At a review hearing the court, after considering the supervising officer’s report, may amend any requirement or provision of the order.
(3)The court—
(a)shall not amend the treatment or testing requirement unless the offender expresses his willingness to comply with the requirement as amended;
(b)shall not amend any provision of the order so as reduce the treatment and testing period below the minimum specified in section 234B(2)(a) of this Act or to increase it above the maximum so specified; and
(c)except with the consent of the offender, shall not amend any requirement or provision of the order while an appeal against the order is pending.
(4)If the offender fails to express his willingness to comply with the treatment or testing requirement as proposed to be amended by the court, the court may revoke the order.
(5)If at a review hearing the court, after considering the supervising officer’s report, is of the opinion that the offender’s progress under the order is satisfactory, the court may so amend the order as to provide for each subsequent review to be made without a hearing.
(6)A review without a hearing shall take place in chambers without the parties being present.
(7)If at a review without a hearing the court, after considering the supervising officer’s report, is of the opinion that the offender’s progress is no longer satisfactory, the court may issue a warrant for the arrest of the offender or may, if it thinks fit, instead of issuing a warrant in the first instance, issue a citation requiring the offender to appear before that court as such time as may be specified in the citation.
(8)Where an offender fails to attend—
(a)a review hearing in accordance with a requirement contained in a drug treatment and testing order; or
(b)a court at the time specified in a citation under subsection (7) above,
the court may issue a warrant for his arrest.
(9)Where an offender attends the court at a time specified by a citation issued under subsection (7) above—
