(1)The authority or authorities who made the scheme (other than any to whose area the scheme no longer relates) may vary it by—
(a)increasing the area to which it relates (to no greater than the whole of their area or combined area) or adding to the description of local services which are to be provided under quality contracts,
(b)reducing that area or reducing the description of services, or
(c)providing for new exclusions from the scheme or for the variation or revocation of existing exclusions.
(2)The scheme may not be varied under subsection (1)(a) unless the conditions set out in paragraphs (a) and (b) of section 124(1) are met with respect to the scheme as varied.
(3)The scheme may not be varied under subsection (1)(b) unless those conditions—
(a)are no longer met with respect to it, but
(b)are met with respect to the scheme as varied.
(4)The authority or authorities who made the scheme (other than any to whose area the scheme no longer relates) may revoke the scheme—
(a)if those conditions are no longer met with respect to it, or
(b)if they and one or more other authorities make a quality contracts scheme covering the whole or part of the area to which it relates.
(5)The variation or revocation of the scheme under subsection (1) or (4)—
(a)requires the approval of the authority which approved the making of the scheme, and
(b)is subject to the same procedure as the making of a scheme, except to the extent that that procedure is modified by regulations made by the appropriate national authority;
and section 130 applies to a varied scheme but subject to regulations so made.
(6)The appropriate national authority may by regulations provide that in prescribed circumstances quality contracts schemes may be revoked by that authority before coming into operation.
