Summary

Guidelines about how to report fraud or corruption and links to our anti fraud and corruption policy.
Fraud and Corruption within the public sector costs the taxpayer hundreds of millions of pounds each year and is on the increase. All public sector organisations are likely to be affected in some way by fraudulent or corrupt activity.

Babergh District Council is committed to the prevention, detection and investigation of all forms of fraud and corruption whether they are attempted from within or external to the organisation.

Guidelines for reporting concerns are set out in this document (PDF, 117KB). It  covers 'whistleblowing' and what employees or members of the public/outside organisations should do if they suspect fraud, theft or corruption.

Our Anti fraud and corruption policy (PDF, 68KB) outlines the measures currently in place. The Council is not however complacent. Help us to stop the fraudsters by reporting suspected fraud and corruption to the Council.
