Mosney asylum seekers’ centre makes €1m profit

THE Mosney holiday village in Co Meath, which now acts as an accommodation centre for asylum seekers, made a profit of €1 million in 2005.

Accounts filed at the Companies Registration Office show the company increased its turnover from €8.4m to €8.78m.

But pre-tax profits fell €4,000 to €1.028m. The 2004 profit figure was boosted by the gain on the sale of some property. At operating level, profits were ahead by nearly €250,000 as the increased turnover offset higher costs.
