The chief constable of PSNI has stated that no disciplinary action will be taken in relation to the data breach that cost hundreds of millions of pounds. The breach occurred when the details of almost 9,500 officers and staff were mistakenly published in response to a Freedom of Information request.
No disciplinary action is being taken against anyone involved in the PSNI data breach , the chief constable has said.
The list included the surname and first initial of every employee, their rank or grade, where they are based and the unit in which they work.The PSNI has previously indicated that the data breach could potentially cost the organisation £240 million in security and compensation payouts to officers. The review headed by Pete O’Doherty, temporary commissioner from the City of London Police, said a “siloed approach” to information management functions was also a strong contributory factor. The report, which made 37 recommendations, said structures within the force for dealing with data were “outdated”.
“None of those officers or staff obviously came to work for that to happen that morning,” Mr Boutcher replied.
