Court of Appeal (Criminal Division) before Hallett LJ, SImon J and Judge Jacobs.

Richard appeared for the applicant, who was the chairman of a waste water company. He was applying for leave to appeal against conviction for depositing substances or articles in UK waters without a licence, contrary to the Food and Environmental Protection Act 1985. He was also applying, in the alternative, for leave to appeal against sentence. The appeal against sentence was allowed in part, and the original order for payment of prosecution costs of £44,159 was reduced to £25,000.
