Know something our newsroom should investigate?
Send us the facts you know, explain why the story matters and, where possible, include documents, photographs, links or other supporting material. Submission does not guarantee publication, and information may need to be independently verified.
Requesting a correction
We review credible reports of factual errors. A correction request should identify the exact statement being challenged and explain why it is inaccurate.
Where a significant factual error is confirmed, the article may be corrected in accordance with our Editorial Policy.
Disagreement with an article’s conclusions or analysis does not necessarily mean a factual correction is required.

Sources and sensitive information
We treat information submitted to the newsroom responsibly, but ordinary email should not be assumed to provide complete anonymity or security.
Do not send passwords, banking credentials, unnecessary identity documents or highly sensitive personal information unless there is a clear journalistic reason to do so.
Where appropriate, a journalist may discuss another method of communication with a source after initial contact.
Before contacting us
For corrections, include evidence. For press enquiries, include your deadline. For story tips, provide enough context to explain why the information may be newsworthy. We review messages as newsroom workloads allow and cannot guarantee a response to every submission.
