Please let us have them back !! Systemic failure ? NO NEVER

£20,000 reward offered for discs
Compact discs
Police say there is no evidence criminals have the discs
A reward of £20,000 is being offered for the return of two HM Revenue and Customs CDs containing the personal details of 25 million people.

It comes as the main searches end for the discs, lost after being sent from the HMRC to the National Audit Office.

Meanwhile, the acting head of the HMRC said there had been seven incidents of "some significance" involving data security breaches since April 2005.

These "may well" indicate systemic failure, David Hartnett added.
