Trust me, this shit happens all the time! (cant say anymore on an open fora).

 

This time it got leaked to the media before the department concerned could put in appropriate damage control measures.

 

Massive witch hunt happening atm.

 

Meanwhile, I am sitting back with my popcorn.

                        Reminds of when some police departments in the US sold their old copy machines

without deleting information on the copies they made.

Yah,this is an occasion where it happened and the public were able to find out.

 

I find it laughable that Kevin Rudd launches legal action against the ABC where the official documents (discovered due to incompetent handling and disposal) contradict his testimony to a Royal Commission and of course the nice Royal Commission made no findings against him but he's mad cause it is shown he was made aware of certain things he claimed he never did know.

Let me tell yall how this is going to pan out.

 

The main investigation (which is already compromised as its being done by the Department which lost the documents) and the ASIO investigation will find systemic failings from previous personnel in the handling, storage, dissemination and destruction of highly sensitive and classified material.

 

Failings will also be identified by the areas responsible for the disposal (and checking prior to disposal) of Departmental asets which have been used for the handling, storage, dissemination and destruction of highly sensitive and classified material.

 

No one person will be held responsible, primarily due to the amount of time the documents have been kept when they should have been destroyed and the break in the evidentiary chain regarding the custody of the documents.

 

The Department will announce that it is implementing stronger and more robust measures for the handling, storage, dissemination and destruction of highly sensitive and classified material and training for all personnel to ensure they understand their obligations noting that these are already in place; they are called the Protective Security Policy Framework (unclassified documents freely available from Professor Google) and the Cabinet Handbook (also available from Professor Google) which describes amongst other things how to appropriately handle the information found at the 2nd hand furniture store.

 

Funnily enough the Cabinet Handbook is put out by the Department now embroiled in the controversy over the documents.

 

Anyone else see the irony in this :w00t:
