Those of you who are doing this topic are looking at the motivation of whistleblowers, and whose interest they might be acting in. I think it would be reasonable to consider the difference between a whistleblower in the social services and one in a corporation. The books which you can find on the library catalogue should be a useful starting point.
Credo Reference Database mentions, in one of it's may definitions of the word, the Public Disclosure Act (1998). This has been called the 'Whistleblower's Charter'.
We did not look at Acts of Parliament during our sessions, but they are easy to find using this site :
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts
On a similar theme the UK Parliament site could also be potentially useful. You would be able to identify occasions upon which the subject has been discussed in Hansard ( the written record of Parliament )
www.parliament.uk
This site will normally provide quite a lot of information, and will usually look impressive in a bibliography.
