Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, how many claims have been brought under the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 since July 2024, relating to which public body in each case, and how many have succeeded.

Since July 2024, there were 9,524 Public Interest Disclosure jurisdiction complaints received by the Employment Tribunal. Over the same period, 2,921 complaints were disposed of, approximately 1% of which were successful at hearing. These figures are from published Employment Tribunal (January to March 2026) statistics.

Employment tribunal claims brought under PIDA are not recorded against the public body involved, so this information cannot be provided. Cases successful at hearing may not be representative of cases successfully resolved as those conciliated through ACAS, for example, will have been settled ahead of a tribunal hearing.
