##### 42 Variation of contracts of apprenticeship in certain circumstances
(1) An Apprenticeship Authority may, in exercising its powers under section thirty-nine of this Act, review the contract of apprenticeship, and may vary any of its provisions in such a manner and to such extent as it deems just and equitable, and, if satisfied that the capabilities of the apprentice for the exercise of his trade have increased during the period of suspension of his contract of apprenticeship, may direct that the period or any portion of the period shall be included in the term of apprenticeship.
(2) Where an Apprenticeship Authority, in pursuance of the last preceding subsection, varies any of the provisions of a contract of apprenticeship, or directs that the period, or any portion of the period during which a contract of apprenticeship was suspended shall be included in the term of apprenticeship, the contract shall be deemed to be so varied, and the apprentice shall, for all purposes be deemed to have served that period, or portion of that period, under and in accordance with the contract of apprenticeship in continuation of the period served by him prior to the suspension of the contract of apprenticeship.
