G1 published a correction regarding an article about a decree from the government of São José do Rio Preto, Brazil. Initially, the report incorrectly stated that the city revoked the decree altering the Generic Value Plant (Planta Genérica de Valores, PGV). Instead, the decree that was actually revoked was Number 20.450/2026, which regulated how taxpayers could contest property tax (IPTU) valuations administratively.

This clarification was issued on the same day as the initial error, illustrating the importance of accurate reporting, especially on governmental matters that affect public finances. The revocation of the correct decree marks a significant change in the administrative processes surrounding property tax assessments, which can influence taxation and revenue for the local government as well as the financial obligations of property owners.

The rapid correction of the information underscores the media’s responsibility to ensure accuracy in reporting, particularly regarding legal and fiscal issues that can impact a large section of the community. The focus remains on how these administrative changes might affect various stakeholders, including local residents and the municipal government itself.
