Making a Public Interest Disclosure

The Public Interest Disclosure Act 2003 enables people to make disclosures about wrongdoing within the State public sector, local government and public universities without fear of reprisal.

The Act aims to ensure openness and accountability in government by encouraging people to make disclosures and protecting them when they do.

Further information about public interest disclosures can be found in the Public Interest Disclosure section of the Public Sector Commission website.
