Dr. Fergal Lynch:

I am not sure they were making much of a profit, to be honest. They would repeatedly tell us, and I have no reason to disbelieve them, that they are lucky to stay in business. They have great sustainability difficulties and any money they claim has gone into the provision of the service, not into their own pockets. That is how I would distinguish it.
