Draft commitment: Improve whistle-blower protections in the tax and corporate sectors
This draft commitment is for improving whistle-blower protections in Australia’s first National Action Plan (the Plan).
Australia will ensure appropriate protections are in place for people who report tax evasion or avoidance, corruption, waste, fraud and misconduct within the corporate sector.
This commitment reads
We will improve whistle-blower protections for people who disclose information about tax misconduct to the Australian Taxation Office. We will also consult on other reform options to strengthen and harmonise whistle-blower protections in the corporate sector with those in the public sector.
