Apology - Can a whistle-blower be wrong?
Published 18 October 2006
On 13 March 2000 the New Statesman published an article entitled 'Can a whistle-blower be wrong?'. This article was further published on the magazine’s website. Subsequently, Mrs Alison Taylor issued libel proceedings against the magazine in respect of allegations about her. The proceedings were settled with the magazine agreeing to withdraw the article and to pay damages to her. The online version of the article was immediately withdrawn but was inadvertently restored to the website in November 2005. The New Statesman has apologised to Mrs Taylor for this unfortunate occurrence and the article has now been deleted and destroyed.
