HC Deb 19 April 2004 vol 420 c275W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Department for Constitutional Affairs what provisions are made across departments of Government to reward whistleblowers for providing information leading to successful detection of fraud or other crime; and how many and what sizes of rewards have been made in the past five years. [145211]

Mr. Lammy

My Department is not responsible for whistleblowing provisions across Government Departments.

However, we do have a whistleblowing policy that provides a confidential reporting procedure for employees to voice concerns about any aspect of work within the Department.

There is no policy of rewarding whistleblowers, and in the past year no rewards have been made.
