Given the questions raised by the students about the protection of complainants, the Agency’s work in this regard was explained to them, and they took the opportunity to inform them of the obligations of the recently approved Law 2/2023, regulating the protection of people who report on regulatory and anti-corruption violations. In this sense, in recent years the Valencian Community has built a legal framework of integrity that allows the improvement of the democratic quality of the institutions.
