Leave to appeal sentence was granted because the sentencing approach raised substantial questions for the full court: potential over-reliance on quantity, insufficient application of Lau Tak Ming factors (including offender's age and lack of prior convictions), unclear treatment of multiple drug types as aggravating, and possible failure to appropriately allow a deduction after the Newton inquiry.
