Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, with reference to the contribution in Westminster Hall on 23 March by the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when she plans to bring forward the review of the whistleblowing framework.

The Government recognises how valuable it is that whistleblowers are prepared to expose wrongdoing, and believes that they should be able to do so without fear of recriminations.

The Government announced the review of the whistleblowing framework on Monday 27^th March. The Terms of Reference for the review are available at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/review-of-the-whistleblowing-framework.
