The Court of Appeal is hearing an appeal in the case of Kong v Gulf International Bank (UK) Limited this week. The case addresses the important issue of when the conduct of a whistleblower can be separated from the act of whistleblowing as a justification for dismissal. BDBF LLP, James Laddie QC of Matrix Chambers and Andrew Smith of 11KBW are acting on a pro bono basis for Protect, the whistleblowing charity who are intervening in the case.
