Ms Emily O'Reilly:

It is probably more likely that those complaints would go to OLAF. If a staff member in an institution believes that something untoward is going on in procurement, or in something to do with the finances, they are more likely to go to OLAF than they are to come to us. A whistleblower might come to us if they feel they have been badly treated, they have not been heard or they have been penalised in some way because they blew the whistle. The generality of whistleblowers' complaints, which might have to do with very serious or even quasi-criminal issues, are more likely to go to OLAF or even the EPPO.
