Three senators have praised the KPMG whistleblower and called for stronger legal protections after exposing widespread ethical failures at the firm.
The Senate has a moral obligation to urgently create a whistleblower protection agency following the recent KPMG audit scandal, according to Senator Paul Scarr.
Scarr is one of three parliamentarians who spoke in the Senate about the ethical failures in the audit division of KPMG. He renewed a call for the creation of a whistleblower protection agency to support those seeking to make disclosures to authorities.
Scarr and fellow senators Deborah O’Neill and Barbara Pocock pointed to the valuable service the whistleblower performed in revealing the full scope of unethical conduct in the Big Four firm’s audit division during an adjournment debate on Thursday.
