So a guy blew the whistle on CoR, an EU organisation. EU judges found against CoR, but it refused to cough up. The only action that can be taken against the CoR is withholding part of their budget. This is being done. Yep - totally shocking.

MEPs support whistleblower’s 15-year saga – POLITICO

In 2015 Parliament again urged the CoR to comply with the Tribunal’s judgments.The CoR, which declined to comment, has consistently refused to implement the court judgments and has ignored the findings of the OLAF report and resolutions of Parliament. The officials responsible for the harassment were quickly promoted, once McCoy had left the agency.
“Not only has the CoR refused to accept these court decisions and the OLAF findings, but it has failed to put in place internal procedures which can protect whistleblowers,” said Zanni, a member of Italy’s anti-establishment Five Star Movement.
McCoy, 65, a Liverpool-born economist, said he was cautious about his chances of ever receiving compensation for his ordeal, but believed the CoR could not ignore the will of Parliament for much longer.
McCoy said that unless the EU’s whistleblower protections are strengthened, reporting fraud in the EU remained extremely dangerous. “Unless you’re willing to lose your job and cause irreparable harm to your health, never, ever even think about blowing any whistles,” he said.

Earlier this year, the European Ombudsman found only two of the nine EU institutions it examined had complied with their legal obligations to enact whistleblowing protections.
