I thankful to the Minster for writing to us. However, I have two follow up questions. What process was used to appoint this dedicated protected disclosures manager? That is not outlined in the response. Under the Act, the bodies themselves are obliged to publish annual reviews of protected disclosures. However, there is no provision in the Act for third parties to publish annual reports. I want clarity that once a protected disclosures manager is appointed that person is obliged to publish an annual report or that forms part of the annual report that body does.
