Minutes:

The Committee considered a report on a revised Whistleblowing Policy.

 

It was necessary to review the Council’s Policy regularly to ensure that it remained compliant with best practice.

 

The Whistleblowing Policy included a series of measures designed to encourage staff to raise concerns and the steps to be taken to investigate such concerns.

 

As the Policy formed part of the Constitution, it would require approval by full Council on the recommendation of the Constitution Committee, having taken into consideration any comments by this Committee.

 

RESOLVED

 

That the revised Whistleblowing Policy as set out in the Appendix to the report be endorsed.
