The following excerpt is from Batchelor (Re), 2014 LSBC 11 (CanLII):

The Law Society also submits that, in the case of Law Society of BC v. Ogilvie, [1999] LSBC 17, the panel identified a non-exhaustive list of factors as worthy of general consideration in disciplinary proceedings and suggests that protection of the public (including public confidence in the disciplinary process and public confidence in lawyers generally) and the rehabilitation of the Respondent, are two factors that play an important role.
