Actually it wasn't. Light-headed, I failed to recognize, that
/etc/ceph/ceph.conf is only a symlink to the Proxmox fuse location below
/etc/pve which permissions aren't easily changed.
I have now resorted to a workaround, dumping the output of 'ceph health' as a
cron job and reading that periodically. That is fully sufficient for my
situation.
Many thanks
