I'm quite sure that if all the files are owned by the 'department_a' group and 'readable' by user apache as I have indicated,

Perhaps I should have made explicit in my post that I wouldn't recommend such file permissions. Apache accessing files with world permissions is ugly and it makes it impossible to run f.e. php with safe_mode or have apache write files other than by allowing the world write access. Which is why I described that setup with a shared group.
