Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) BillContribution
Currently for public sector fraud, whistleblowers can make disclosures to a number of prescribed persons where they relate to fraud in the public sector, such as the NAO’s Comptroller and Auditor-General, the director of the Serious Fraud Office, the Auditors-General for Wales and Scotland, the NHS Counter Fraud Authority and various other bodies listed in the prescribed persons order held by the Department for Business and Trade. There are already more than 90 organisations and individuals that a worker may approach outside their workplace to report suspected or known wrongdoing.
