Whistleblowers who leak information leading to the recovery of money or assets will receive 10% of the money or asset’s value.
The Whistleblower Protection Bill aims to create a fund to compensate whistleblowers with monetary prizes.
The Whistleblower Reward Fund will be used to compensate people whose whistleblowing leads to the recovery of illegally acquired money.
The proposed Fund is being established at a time when the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has increased the reward for whistleblowers who expose tax cheats to a maximum of Sh5 million.
If the bill passes, a whistleblower who makes a revelation that leads to an accused person’s arrest and conviction will be compensated with money from the fund.
