The second petition is PE1605, which is on whistleblowing in the NHS—a safer way to report mismanagement and bullying. The committee is asked to consider the petition and the evidence on it that has been presented to the Public Petitions Committee. Do members have any comments?

I would like to suggest that we incorporate the issue into our inquiry into national health service governance. That seems highly appropriate. We could perhaps look at having a session on whistleblowing as part of the inquiry.

Do members agree to take that very sensible approach?
