Rather than publish this information separately, the regulators have compiled an annual report jointly to highlight their coordinated effort in working together to highlight and address whistleblowing concerns raised to them.
The aim of the report is to be transparent about how regulators handle disclosures, highlight the action taken about these issues, and improve collaboration across the health sector. Speaking up to protect others is important, and the GDC wants to encourage this, especially when there are serious concerns regarding public safety or confidence.
The number of whistleblowing disclosures the GDC received this year was 82, compared to 61 last year. This was a return to the level of disclosures the GDC had received in previous years, indicating last year may have been an outlier.
