 From things heard, some of them ask but they don't have to take any 
notice of the answer, and indeed there have been a number of years when 
the money to take notice was not made available. We have not yet seen 
the sea change from the top that is necessary, and some of the best 
people have either faded away from being involved, or are still in there 
but keeping their heads down (and, sadly, RIP Phil Perry, who was trying 
to help the NHS).

It is the ICO that is pushing infosec, but that doesn't lead to a 
systemic approach to it.
