My Department’s Protected Disclosures Policy and Procedures safeguard the confidentiality of any discloser. For this reason, I do not propose to comment on whether any matter is, or is not, subject to an evaluation or investigation by this Department.

However, for the sake of completeness and accuracy, the Deputy should be aware that the Workplace Relations Commission's Adjudication referred to, was appealed and was subsequently set aside in its entirety by the Labour Court in its determination on 13th December 2019.
