1. The applicant's main complaint is that an insufficient discount was given to him in respect of the assistance he gave to the police. It is noted that he received a discount of 50%. He accepts that he did not give evidence in any other trial. It would appear that the 50% discount was generous in all the circumstances. The starting point was in conformity with the guidelines. It is pertinent to add that it was the applicant himself who referred to the assistance he gave to the authorities.
