The Court held the deputy judge’s enhancement to a 4‑year starting point for each credit‑card offence was disproportionate; the correct starting point was 3 years 6 months for each of charges 2–4, reduced by one‑third for guilty pleas to 28 months each; the concurrent/consecutive order was adjusted (16 months consecutive quashed; 7 months consecutive on charge 4 ordered) to give an overall total sentence reflecting the totality principle, resulting in an overall custodial term of 4 years 3 months for the applicant.
