Given the post‑November 1990 prosecution policy favouring repatriation of illegal immigrants simpliciter, it is unfair to increase sentence solely because of a previous unlawful entry; therefore the appeals are allowed in part and sentences of 18 months on the immigration offences are reduced to the guideline 15 months imprisonment.
