GDC releases healthcare regulators’ whistleblowing disclosures report

1 min read GDC
The General Dental Council (GDC), along with eight other UK healthcare regulators, has published its 2024 annual report on whistleblowing disclosures.

Since 2018, all the healthcare regulators have jointly compiled an annual report to highlight their coordinated effort in working together to highlight and address whistleblowing concerns raised with them.

The aim of the report is to be transparent about how the regulators handle disclosures, to highlight the action taken about these issues, and to help support collaboration across the health sector. According to the GDC, speaking up to protect others is important, and it wants to encourage this, especially when there are serious concerns regarding public safety or confidence in the dental professionals it regulates.

In 2024, the regulator received 79 whistleblowing disclosures, compared to 82 last year.
