(1)  the seriousness of the harm or the risk of harm to human safety;

(2)  the duration of the offence;

(3)  the repetitive nature of the offence;

(4)  the foreseeable character of the offence or the failure to follow recommendations or warnings to prevent it;

(5)  whether the offender acted intentionally or was reckless or negligent;

(6)  the revenues and other benefits derived by the offender from the offence; and

(7)  the offender’s past conduct.

A judge who, despite the presence of an aggravating factor, decides to impose the minimum fine must give reasons for the decision.
