The NSW Ombudsman is hosting the second PID Awareness Week from 11–15 August 2025 to raise awareness and understanding of the Public Interest Disclosures Act 2022 (PID Act).
Access the PID Awareness Week agenda and register to attend the week's events.
We have a range of resources to help you raise awareness of the importance of speaking up and reporting wrongdoing.
The Public Interest Disclosures Act 2022 (PID Act) applies to all NSW public sector agencies. Learn more about the Act.
If someone you manage makes a disclosure to you about serious wrongdoing, your role is to forward that report to a disclosure officer in your agency. Your agency should have a Public Interest Disclosure (PID) Policy which sets out the relevant procedures.
If you are a NSW public official, there is support available when you speak up and report serious wrongdoing in the NSW public sector.
Every public official needs to know about the PID Act, how to report serious wrongdoing and what will happen when they do.
We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and pay our respects to all Elders past and present, and to the children of today who are the Elders of the future.
