Framework for receipt and investigation of protected disclosures in Ireland.
The Office of the Ombudsman (Ireland) intends to establish a multi-supplier framework for the receipt and investigation of protected disclosures (whistleblowing). The framework will cover services related to handling and investigating disclosures made under the Protected Disclosures Act. The notice is a prior information notice (PIN) only, indicating market consultation before a formal tender. The buyer is the Office of the Ombudsman, serving the public interest in Ireland. No specific qualifications, scale, or duration are detailed at this stage.
