The court exercised its discretion under Cap.492 s.8(b) to award costs to the appellant because the appeal succeeded in substituting a lesser sentence; the appeal was straightforward and uncontroversial, and a reasonable costs sum was appropriately assessed at HK$40,000 (HK$20,000 counsel and HK$20,000 solicitor).
