Regardless of whether the collection of the data was incidental or not, this is a huge breach of public trust given the assurances made by the Australian government.

For shame.

I totally agree with you.

However, all that the various Agencies are saying is - 'Yeah sure, it's in there but it isn't something we cared about enough to have looked at so we haven't' (paraphrasing here obviously). Whether that is true or not is another matter entirely of course.
