An earlier version of this article said that Ray Micklewright, the Gleneagle Civic Association’s secretary and one of the five directors facing a removal vote, had not replied to questions from The Independent. He replied at 6:55 p.m. on September 13, some six hours after publication and well inside the 10 a.m. September 14 deadline The Independent had set. His reply was not seen before the article was updated later that evening, and he was wrongly recorded as silent in both the article and its methodology note. The error was The Independent’s alone. His answers on the number of proxies he held, how he intended to vote them, and the board’s conflict-of-interest reasoning have been added to the article, and the account of who had and had not responded has been corrected throughout.
