A draft law on whistleblower protection to transpose the EU Directive on Whistleblowing has been included on the agenda for a special meeting of the Chamber of Deputies in the Czech Republic.
After much delay, the scheduled discussion on the draft Bill is due to take place during the 103rd special meeting of the Chamber of Deputies on May 12, 2021 at 15.00 pm.
Experts have said that the session is likely to be the last chance for the Bill to be discussed in the current parliamentary term. The Government’s proposal is included at the end of the agenda and only after the Pirate MPs draft law to protect whistleblowers will be discussed (with undisclosed drafts falling under the table.) There therefore remains much uncertainty at the likelihood of success for the law.
