The Court upheld the Council's finding that advertising discounted treatment prices (including crossed‑out original prices and quotas) objectively constituted promotional tactics aimed to solicit or canvass patients in breach of Code s5.2.1.2(d); that the restriction pursues legitimate aims and was rational, necessary and proportionate within the Council's margin of appreciation; accordingly the disciplinary finding and sanction were upheld.
