The department of economic affairs appears to have become a victim of the printer's devil. In an April 1 gazette notification updating the Harmonised Master List of Infrastructure sub-sectors, the fourth item under the subhead "social and commercial infrastructure" reads: "Common infrastructure for industrial parks, SEX, tourism facilities and agriculture markets". Since X and Z are next to each other on the Qwerty keyboard, it is possible to deduce that the notification was referring to special economic zones, or SEZ. But the error is eye-catching and eyebrow-raising, considering it has appeared in an official gazette.
