Should different types of organizations be held to a different Data Security Standard?

In the UK the Abortion provider has been fined £200,000 for a breach that happened in March of 2012. They are planning on appealing the fine as they believe it is "Out of Proportion", so what is out of proportion? the fine or the fact that we hold the type of information they store to a higher protection standard.
The Abortion industry is highly criticized and in the public eye all the time, based on the information that they store they should be held at a higher Standard for data protection.
