(4) On hearing an application under subsection (1), the Court may —(a) confirm, vary or cancel the certificate under section 342(1) in respect of which the application is brought; or (b) give such directions to the Official Assignee, or make such order, as the Court may think fit. (5) Unless the Court orders otherwise, a variation made under subsection (4)(a) of the certificate under section 342(1) takes effect from the date of issue of the certificate. (6) A variation of the certificate does not affect any payment made by the bankrupt, prior to the date of the variation, in respect of any reduced monthly contribution pursuant to the certificate.
