Appeal with the leave of the single judge against the sentence of a fine in the total sum of pounds 400,000 imposed by HHJ Rivlin QC, the Recorder of Westminster, for two offences charged under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. One of the questions which has arisen in the appeal is whether and to what extent the approach to sentencing for offences under the Order should follow those which apply to offences committed under the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.
