Email attachments in the public service

Many public servants can't open pdf attachments because their trusty IT departments tell them they are too dangerous. Or is it because things would have to move more quickly and efficiently if planners could actually read drawings of preliminary proposals emailed to them?

This problem is endemic across the public sector, who are still fixated on the use of that ancient Egyptian technology: Snail Mail

I am reliably informed by an IT consultant that he has never heard of an infected pdf file.

When will Ireland enter the 21st century?
