For the purposes of this response, we have interpreted ‘protected disclosures’ as a referral received via the DWP Whistle-blowers Hotline that has been classified under the definitions in the Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 (PIDA). We have interpreted ‘staff alleged detriment’ as staff members reporting a grievance. <table><tbody><tr><td> </td><td>2015/16</td><td>2016/17</td><td>2017/18*</td></tr><tr><td>Protected disclosures received (Whistle-blower referrals)</td><td>41</td><td>27</td><td>9</td></tr><tr><td>Protected disclosures found to be valid</td><td>11</td><td>2</td><td>1 (8 cases ongoing)</td></tr><tr><td>Staff alleging detriment as a result of these disclosures</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><td>Staff leaving the Department as a result of detriment following raising a disclosure</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td></tr></tbody></table> *2017/18 data covers the period 1 April 2017 to 30 June 2017.
