The Minister stated that, while an abuse of an authority by a public official in relation to a disclosure issue is not specifically spelled out in the definition of relevant wrongdoings, in the event that it emerged that such an abuse may have taken place, he is confident that this would be protected in the legislation and that, moreover, he has received the advice of the Attorney General in this regard. Is that correct?
