The Court of Appeal heard the appeal in the important whistleblowing case Chesterton Global Ltd (t/a Chesterton Humberts) and another v Nurmohamed on 8 June. The Court of Appeal is considering when a disclosure is "in the public interest", a key hurdle for claimants seeking to demonstrate that a disclosure is protected.

UPDATE: The Court of Appeal published its full judgment in this case on 11 July 2017. See Chesterton Global Ltd & another v Nurmohamed [2017] EWCA Civ 314 for a law report on the judgment and guidance on the implications for employers.
