More "lessons learned" statements but no accountability.

Who is being held accountable for these failures? If a regular bobby neglected their duty like this they'd be in front of a panel on a misconduct charge, yet those responsible for this mess fail time and again and never face scrutiny for their incompetence or negligence.

The organisation will nod sagely and prattle on about "lessons being learned" instead of taking responsibility, but these are lessons that those responsible already knew full well, yet still they failed to do their job. There is a 'neglect of duty' clause in the Misconduct in Public Office definition, and it should be applied to whoever was so wilful negligent in this instance.
