[2012] EWCA Crim 1974

In the absence of an offender disclosing his financial means, it was appropriate for a court to draw a reasonable inference that he could pay a prosecution costs order from the information that was available and to make an order only against him when a co-offender had also pleaded guilty at trial to the unauthorised deposit of controlled waste contrary to the Environmental Protection Act 1990.
