I can see that the employer of anyone who fills this in will be getting 
a call in the near future. For example lets have a look at question 6

Awareness training is vital... let's arrange an meeting to discuss
this in more detail..."

OR 

6a Y
6b N   Saleman to sys administrator "Do YOU realise that Security
Awareness training needs to be followed up in this fast changing
evironment .... Let's arrange an meeting to discuss this in more
detail..."

If your company has good security arrangements the last thing you should
be doing is filling in this survay. If you wish to help Paul Andrews
then forward this to you in house Security Administration so that they
can answer if they think it appropriate. If you do not have some one
responsible for security, then I suggest that you appoint someone and
mail (not email) Paul he can (will?) pass these details along to someone
who can advise you for a sutible fee. Alternativly the someone can buy a
book on the subject and start to learn about the basics of theses things
before passing shuch information over a public network.
