Confidential Reporting Policy
The Council has a Confidential Reporting Policy also known as a
whistleblowing policy.
The Council is committed to the highest possible standards of
openness, probity and accountability. In line with that commitment
we expect employees, and others that we deal with, who have serious
concerns about any aspect of the Council’s work to come forward and
voice those concerns. It is recognised that most cases will have to
proceed on a confidential basis.
Public Concern at Work (PCaW) is the independent authority on
public interest whistleblowing. All our work is informed by
the free advice we offer to people with whistleblowing dilemmas and
the professional support we provide to enlightened organisations.
