I want to know about the reasons for the training, if no-one wants it. Is it
a legal requirement, a "we really should do it" type of thing, or just good
sense? Back channel if more appropriate.

Knowing this and the type of organisation involved would help in your
approach, as THE GUY IN CHARGE can be an awfully lonely place to be.

It sounds like a good challenge, and I'm keen to hear more.
