46 Release without sentence
A court sentencing an offender may impose no sentence if it considers that —
(a)
the circumstances of the offence are trivial or technical; and
(b)
having regard to —
(i)
the offender’s character, antecedents, age, health and mental condition; and
(ii)
any other matter that the court thinks is proper to consider,
it is not just to impose any other sentencing option.
