Three major incidents of alleged misconduct and malpractice within Edinburgh City Council were reported by staff between January and April, it has emerged.
Safecall, the council's external whistleblowing hotline, received 19 new complaints in the first quarter of this year, according to a report going before councillors next week. Three were labelled 'major/significant', 13 were 'minor/operational' and the remaining three are still to be assigned a category.
Members of the Governance, Risk and Best Value Committee (GRBV) will also be presented with outcome reports on two major investigations carried out following calls to the service. It is expected, however, that these will be debated in private.
