Serious wrongdoing as defined in the NSW Public Interest Disclosures Act 2022 includes behaviours such as corrupt conduct, fraud, serious maladministration, government information contravention, privacy contravention and serious and substantial waste of public money. Reporting serious wrongdoing may also be known as whistleblowing, or a Public Interest Disclosure (PID).
Under s81 of the Public Interest Disclosure Act 2022 (the PID Act), an agency may arrange for another agency or entity to exercise functions on its behalf. The Sydney Business School Pty Ltd has entered into such an arrangement with the University of Wollongong.
