The nine-month uplift for the burglary was excessive; having regard to authorities the burglary stand-alone starting point should have been 14–15 months and the aggregate starting point no more than 36 months. A youth discount of five months (about 13–14%) should have been applied and the 15% guilty plea discount was appropriate, resulting in a substituted sentence of two years three months' imprisonment on the robbery charge.
