Lawyers retaliated in response to allegations, noting that the band members "paid significant tax" and that the services were not intended to avoid tax avoidance purposes but rather were legitimate commercial enterprises. In an interview with BBC Radio in 2020, Paul Stenning, who worked with the band under their financial advisor Simon Orange, detailed how the band's finances were arranged, saying they were "completely disseminated."
