Bellevue Law’s recently appointed Senior Associate, Shannon Moore, has been featured in a recent article published by Law360 UK discussing the UK government’s review of the whistleblowing framework and the challenges surrounding potential reform.
The article,“Whistleblowing Review Lacks Clear Direction And Consensus”, explores the debate around whether the government’s review could lead to significant changes to whistleblowing protections or more limited amendments to the existing framework. According to legal commentators featured in the piece, there remains uncertainty regarding the overall objectives of the review and the direction future reforms may take.
The discussion follows the publication of government-commissioned research examining the effectiveness of the current whistleblowing framework in Great Britain, including the operation of existing protections, reporting routes, organisational responses to concerns raised, and the wider culture surrounding whistleblowing.
Shannon joined Bellevue Law earlier last month and advises clients on a wide range of employment law matters, including workplace investigations, employee relations issues and whistleblowing concerns. Her inclusion in the article reflects the growing recognition of her expertise in this important and evolving area of employment law.

As the government’s review progresses, employers should continue to monitor developments carefully and ensure their whistleblowing policies and reporting procedures remain effective, accessible and compliant with current legal requirements.
