The Protected Disclosures Act 2014 came into effect on 15 July 2014. This Act provides a framework within which workers can raise concerns regarding potential wrongdoing that has come to their attention in the workplace in the knowledge that they can avail of the protections afforded under the legislation. 

The school to which the Deputy refers operates under the patronage of Cavan and Monaghan Education and Training Board (ETB). Protected disclosures relating to that school are dealt with by the ETB concerned.
