"Neither the BBC nor The Telegraph nor The Guardian is making the kept copies allegation that the Reg is. That might be because they don't see it as significant or it might be because for another reason."

The point is, he's blabbing about confidential work-related stuff and that alone is a breach of whatever. BBC Radio 4 had the goodness to bring on an interviewee to make exactly this point. Whether he kept any record outside his own head is not directly relevant (tho' presumably a crime in its own right).
