Consultation on proposals for the introduction of the role of an Independent National (Whistleblowing) Officer for NHSScotland Staff
This consultation seeks views on proposals for the establishment of an Independent National Whistleblowing Officer(INO)for the employees of NHSScotland.
Section 6: What should the INO be called in Scotland?
It is important that the INO has a clear title that signposts its functions to staff. Suggested titles for the role have included:
- NHSScotland's Whistleblowing Ombudsman
- NHSScotland's Independent National Officer
- Independent National Whistleblowing Officer for NHSScotland.
We would welcome your views on the title of the INO role as outlined in this consultation paper.
However, if you feel that the role should extend to those staff not employed by NHSScotland who deliver health and social care services in Scotland, we would also welcome your views on alternative titles for the INO in these circumstances.

| Question 6a: What do you feel would be an appropriate title for the INO in Scotland if the role also covered staff not employed by NHSScotland who deliver health and social care services in Scotland? |
