I don't know where anyone is boasting about having the data but keeping it a secret. All that I've seen said is that nobody from NATS, well those that wish to remain employed, are going to go in to any detail on internal NATS processes here.
As has been mentioned already infringements are reported by NATS to the CAA under the MOR scheme and that information is published by the CAA so why should NATS also have to publish the same information a second time?
