塞浦路斯报告称，它适用劳动法保护举报人的一般原则。第 7(III)2004 法律第 9 条规定，官员违反《贪污腐败问题民法公约》第 9 条，对举报腐败行为的人实施不正当惩罚的，犯下可处以徒刑或罚金的罪行。另外还提及第 95(I)2001 号 《保护证人法》。 审议组指出，国家在保护检举人方面的条例基本上没有效力，因为它们在适用上差别很大且模糊不清。因此，审议组坚决支持制定具体立法。不过现已拟订一项单独法案，对保护举报人和配合调查的罪犯作出了补充规定。
Cyprus reported the application of general principles of labour law for the protection of reporting persons. Section 9 of Law No. 7(III)2004 provides that an official who, in contravention of article 9 of the Civil Law Convention on Corruption, imposes an unjustified punishment on a whistle-blower for reporting corruption, commits an offence which may lead to imprisonment or a pecuniary penalty. Reference was also made to section 16(3) of the Protection of Witnesses Law No. 95(I)2001. The review team noted that the national regulations on whistle-blower protection are largely ineffective owing to their disparate and vague application and therefore strongly supported the elaboration of specific legislation. However, a separate bill has been prepared providing supplementary provisions on the protection of reporting persons and cooperating offenders.
