Whistleblower report – What happens next?

It does not matter how a concern is raised, once it reaches the experienced staff at Stopline, it is assessed by an experienced forensic investigator and the report is forwarded to the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood who will also assess the report and determine next steps in accordance with the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood policies and procedures.

Each report receives its own Unique Reference Number and even if the person making the report prefers to remain anonymous, we encourage them to contact Stopline at regular intervals (we suggest each 2 weeks) to find out how their matter is progressing. Stopline staff will not divulge any information relating to a report unless the person is able to provide sufficient information to identify them as the person who initially made the report.

This process also assists if the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood representative appointed to oversee the matter has further queries to be put to the person making the report– Stopline is able to facilitate questions and answers between the investigator and the person making the report while protecting anonymity.

When the investigation is concluded, Stopline will be informed about the outcome and that finding will be recorded on our system.
