24Variation or recall of banning order
1
The sheriff may vary or recall—

A variation may not vary the date on which the order expires—
a
in the case of a banning order, beyond the date which is 6 months after the date on which the order was granted,
b
in the case of a temporary banning order, beyond the date by which section 21(3) requires the sheriff to determine the related application for a banning order.

An order may be so varied or recalled only on an application by or on behalf of—
a
the subject of the order,
b
the applicant for the order,
c
the adult at risk to whom the order relates,
d
any other person who has an interest in the adult at risk’s well-being or property.
