Whenever a maintenance court

(a)makes an order under section 16(1)(b) in substitution of a maintenance order; or
(b)discharges a maintenance order under section 16(1)(b),

the maintenance order shall cease to be of force and effect only insofar as the court expressly, or by necessary implication, replaced that order or part thereof, and the maintenance officer shall forthwith give notice of the decision to the registrar or clerk of the court in the Republic where the maintenance order was issued or where the sentence concerned was imposed, as the case may be, who shall deal with the relevant records or registers in the prescribed manner.
