J U D G M E N T
------------------------
Hon Stock JA (giving the judgment of the Court):
1. The applicant is aged 49 years with no previous convictions. The role that she played in this affair was, she said, as an employee, earning $250 a day for two months prior to her arrest. Manufacturing equipment was found in the premises, for which the reason the sentence was no doubt higher than otherwise it would have been. Nonetheless a question arises for consideration, namely, whether the three-year starting point was or was not too high. That is a matter which is worthy of consideration by the full Court and I therefore grant the applicant leave to appeal against sentence.
