This is the monthly roundup of updates provided by the EU Whistleblowing Monitor team of country editors detailing national developments in the transposition of the EU Directive on Whistleblowing during November 2023.
It has been nearly two years since the deadline for all Member States to have fully transposed Directive 2019/1937.
Two countries are still listed as delayed – no countries have not started.
No country can be yet considered fully transposed – the EU Commission started and progressed infringement proceedings against most Member States and made referrals to the European Court of Justice for transposition failure. The conformity study assessing Member States transposition efforts is currently underway.
