Guardian Issues Corrections on Carer's Allowance and Word Wheel
Guardian Corrections: Carer's Allowance and Word Wheel

The Guardian newspaper has published a series of corrections and clarifications, addressing errors in its recent reporting and puzzles.

Key Corrections Issued

One significant correction concerns the Sayce review and the ongoing carer's allowance scandal. The newspaper initially reported that compensation for those affected by the scandal was a published recommendation of the review. It has now clarified that while the matter was considered, it did not form one of the review's final, published recommendations. This incorrect information appeared in the article 'Victory for carers after inquiry into debt scandal' on 25 November, specifically in the early editions on page 1 and in a timeline on page 13.

Puzzle Solution Amended

In a separate matter, the publication also corrected a puzzle answer from its G2 section. The solution for Monday's Word wheel was incorrectly given as 'attenuate'. The newspaper has confirmed that the correct solution was 'nightlife'. This oversight occurred in the previous day's G2 on page 12.

Other Amended Articles and How to Complain

The list of other recently amended articles includes pieces on a television review, political statements regarding delivery drivers, a legal complaint against the Serbian president, a legal loophole in New South Wales, a musical quest, photography awards, a Ukrainian sumo champion, the US affordability crisis, job cuts at Australia's CSIRO, and a story about Dick Van Dyke turning down the role of James Bond.
