The appeal was dismissed because the magistrate correctly concluded that immediate custodial sentences were necessary and proportionate given the public danger of practising medicine without registration, the large quantity of poisons and antibiotics, the appellant's relevant previous conviction, and that a one-third discount for a timely guilty plea had been appropriately applied; alternative non‑custodial options were not suitable in the circumstances.
