Britain’s Independent Bullying Complaints Body Is Up & Running: Whistleblowing Service For Film & TV Finally Set To Launch In September
Nearly five years after the Noel Clarke scandal, Britain’s independent bullying and harassment complaints body is finally about to launch its landmark whistleblowing service.
The Creative Industries Independent Standards Authority (CIISA) will roll out its hotline in September and says those who report concerns to CIISA may be entitled to additional legal protections under UK whistleblowing law, including where they may have previously signed Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs).
That is because CIISA has become an officially recognized whistleblowing body by the UK government, giving it additional protections and allowing people who have signed NDAs to report behavior. What is termed a Public Interest Disclosure Order will come into force on June 2, meaning CIISA will be designated a ‘Prescribed Person’ for whistleblowing disclosures relating to the film, TV, music and theater sectors.
