The detention centre order was set aside because orders of detention or training were inappropriate for a Section 17 attack of this gravity; public interest and deterrence required a custodial prison sentence. The appropriate first instance sentence would have been four years' imprisonment; reduced on review to three years' imprisonment and substituted for the existing order.
