Appellate review must quash burglary convictions where evidence does not permit inference of intent to inflict grievous bodily harm (first and third appellants); where evidence supports intent an amended charge to 'attempted grievous bodily harm' is permissible and conviction may stand (fourth appellant); sentencing must be adjusted in light of offending facts, prior record relevance, first‑offender status and time in custody; burglary as charged barred suspended sentence under s109B.
