I can assure the Minister that Senator Marie Louise O’Donnell and I are here passionately to assist him. He has claimed he is a social democrat, that he does not think "business" is a dirty word and that he is all for profit. I am all for profit, too. However, in this case, it is profit for citizens. We want to give the licence to a professional company. There is a professional group of people in Middle Abbey Street running the lottery. I want to keep the profits from the lottery for the people and causes that the Minister so eloquently explained he is under pressure to service. I am terrified that Camelot or whoever else is involved will profiteer from citizens.
