Citizenship since age of two
editSydney Morning Herald reported that "Senator Canavan has conceded he has been an Italian citizen since he was 2". The text in the article attributed to this source reads, 'As part of the High Court proceedings, Canavan's lawyers said that, regardless of his registration as an "Italian resident abroad" in 2006, and despite a change in Italian citizenship law when had been two years old, it appeared that he had never been an Italian citizen.' This contradicts the source.

Misleading text on the nature of approval
editRegarding a grant for a football stadium in North Queensland the article states:
He denied it was a breach of ministerial standards as under the North Australia Infrastructure Facility Act, he had no power to approve loans but could only reject them.
There is no reference for this statement. Also it appear incorrect, if you have a power to reject a grant, and you do not reject it then you have approved it, they are two side of the same coin. If you can approve a grant you can reject it by not exercising that power. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 159.196.12.207 (talk) 06:43, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
