That the software may have been very flaky is incompetent not criminal. Disgraceful is that governance that should have been in place to identify and correct inadequacies was either completely deficient or deliberately ignored.
Those responsible for allowing so many to have suffered significant long term personal consequences need to be identified.
Appropriate punishment should follow - the "offence" may be incompetence or complacency. At the other extreme knowingly concealing or failing to act when the facts were clearly evident.
Senior officials and politicians should face the most severe sanctions - irrespective of their current positions and political pressures. Sadly I suspect those most likely to be complicit will have already destroyed much of the evidence.
