The court held the sentencing judge was entitled to treat use of a forged identity card as a basis for some uplift but the 7‑month uplift imposed was manifestly excessive in the circumstances; the appropriate disposition is to reduce the total sentence to 18 months by imposing 18 months for the primary offence, 15 months for the secondary offence, and ordering the sentences to run concurrently.
