Given the total quantity (23.66 grams), the respondent's substantial criminal record and prior failed treatment, the DATC order was inappropriate; applying Lau Tak-ming produced a baseline of six years, reduced to four years for plea, with a further six-month credit leading to a custodial sentence of three years, and the appellate court quashed the DATC order and imposed that sentence.
