they may order the licence to be extinguished at the expiry of such period as may be specified in the order unless it is again in force for all purposes before the expiry of that period.

(2)If Her Majesty by Order in Council declares that the removal of licences as mentioned in paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of section 141 of this Act is in general no longer prevented as mentioned in that paragraph, every licence in suspense at the date of the Order shall be extinguished at the expiry of such period as may be specified in the Order unless it is again in force for all purposes before the expiry of that period.

(3)Licensing justices may, on application made to them in that behalf, extend the period specified in an order under subsection (1) of this section, or, in relation to a particular licence, the period specified in an Order in Council under subsection (2) of this section.
