Jones Day Cross-Border Investigations Series 2023: Whistleblowing
Earlier this year, the UK Government announced plans to review the country's existing whistleblowing framework. In recent years, the current framework has been subject to criticism by both MPs and NGOs, with particular concerns having been raised about the adequacy of existing legislation in the wake of high-profile scandals.
For a practical overview of the United Kingdom's current whistleblowing protections, and a comparison to the regimes in the European Union, United Arab Emirates, and United States, please see the first publication in our Cross-Border Investigations Series published earlier this year.
