The General Scheme of the Protected Disclosures (Amendment) Bill 2021 sets out the proposed amendments to the Protected Disclosures Act 2014 to give effect to the Whistleblowing Directive (EU) 2019/1937. The Whistleblowing Directive must be transposed into Irish law by 17 December 2021. Ahead of the new legislation coming into effect, Sinead Wallace, Employment Law Solicitor together with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform will present a joint webinar on the upcoming changes for employers which include additional obligations on companies with regard to the protection of whistleblowers.
