17. Once a year, the Deputy Public Protector for Public Integrity prepares a report specifying
(1)  the number of disclosures received;
(2)  the number of disclosures whose processing or examination was ended under section 12;
(3)  the number of undertaken, ongoing or concluded investigations;
(4)  the number of well-founded disclosures;
(5)  the number of disclosures broken down according to the categories of wrongdoings set out in the first paragraph of section 4;
(6)  the number of persons who were given access to legal advice;
(7)  the number of disclosures whose processing was suspended under section 13.1;
(8)  the number of disclosures referred to in subparagraph 7 whose processing was taken over by the Public Protector;
(8.1)  the number of disclosures referred to in subparagraph 7 whose processing was ended by the Public Protector;
(9)  the number of times information was forwarded under the first, second and third paragraphs of section 14; and
(10)  any recommendations the Public Protector deems appropriate.
The information referred to in subparagraphs 1, 2, 4, 5, 8.1 and 9 must be broken down according to the public body concerned, except for public bodies referred to in paragraph 9 or 9.1 of section 2 or those for which, in particular by reason of their size, doing so would not make it possible to preserve the confidentiality of the identity of a person who has disclosed information or cooperated in an audit or investigation conducted on the basis of a disclosure. The Public Protector must also report on whether the time limits for the processing of disclosures were complied with.
The Public Protector includes the report in his or her activity report.
