I remember reading a brief a couple of years back that any loss of military IT with a memory was raised at cabinet level. Has this changed?

I reckon that the huge losses can be explained by unit closures, particularly large HQs where everything starts off with determined organisation then decends into a bag of nails as the closure draws near and people start to bleed away. The Locking move to Cosford in 99/00 followed that pattern and all the signs of a repeat where in place at Innsworth. You'd think that by now we'd be good at closing a unit down but we're not. Massive NFI sets in and the majority of the rear party is composed of people who are close to timex (no requirement for a posting and usually happy to stay in the area) whose eyes are on an understandably different horizon.
