This section applies if—
a court has made a confiscation order,
the designated officer for a magistrates' court applies to the Crown Court for the discharge of the order, and
the amount remaining to be paid under the order is £50 or less.
In such a case the court may discharge the order.
The Secretary of State may by order vary the amount for the time being specified in subsection (1)(c).
The discharge of a confiscation order under this section does not prevent the making of an application in respect of the order under section 21(1)(d) or 22(1)(c).
Where on such an application the court determines that the order should be varied under section 21(7) or (as the case may be) 22(4), the court may provide that its discharge under this section is revoked.
