| Complainant Name: Clauses Noted: 1 Publication: Daily Mail Complaint: Christian Hunt of Carbon Brief complained to the Press Complaints Commission that the newspaper had published inaccurate information about the cost to consumers of "green taxes", in breach of Clause 1 (Accuracy) of the Editors' Code of Practice. Resolution: The complaint was resolved when the PCC negotiated the publication of the following correction: Recent editorials referring to a leaked Government memo suggested that scrapping ‘green taxes' would save households 30% -- or £300 - on their current energy bills. In fact the memo, which was reported by several newspapers, was outlining estimates for 2020 and should have specified electricity prices rather than energy bills.Date Published: 12/01/2012 << Go Back |
