Expert Commentary
This update marks the move from legal transposition to institutional implementation of the EU Whistleblowing Directive in Luxembooug. It provides the first public evidence of OSIG’s operational role and of early demand for guidance from both regulated entities and public authorities.
The figures are modest because they cover only four months, but they are an important step towards understanding OSIG’s annual reporting function and early implementation data.
