"This booklet sets out the law and policy governing whistleblowing in the UK. It explains how whistleblowing law currently works, the main pitfalls and concerns, and the key proposals for reform. It also looks at developments in whistleblowing law at European level (the new European Union Whistleblowing Directive) and explains the various ways in which the protection provided by the Directive, once in force, will exceed that which is available under UK law, once the UK is no longer an EU member state"
