Public Interest Disclosures
What is a public interest disclosure (PID)?
The Public Interest Disclosures Act 2012 (Vic)(opens in a new window) (the PID Act) supports the Government's commitment to the principles of open, honest and accountable governance and is designed to protect the public interest by:
- exposing serious public sector wrongdoing,
- ensuring public organisations are responsible and accountable,
- protecting people who make a public interest disclosure from detrimental action and ensuring their privacy.
You receive the protection of the PID Act once your allegation has been fully assessed as being a public interest disclosure.

The Department provides several channels for reporting PIDs.
