The magistrate's sentencing exercise was proper: a 15-month starting point was justified by the commercial and prevalent nature of the offences; reduction to 10 months for the plea was appropriate; ordering concurrent terms was proper; fines of HK$5,000 per offence were appropriate to remove profit and deter, and the magistrate was entitled to rely on representations that the appellant could pay; appeal dismissed.
