Section 84F of the Sentencing Act 1995 (WA) does not confer power to backdate the commencement of a sentence when ordering service of a suspended term; the only mechanism to account for time on remand is to reduce the term to be served. The totality principle applies to resentencing for breach of a CSI order, such that a sentence already served for the breaching offences is a relevant factor in assessing whether it would be unjust to require service of the full suspended term.
