Modify, correct (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

amend

I believe this is a double definition.

'modify' is the first definition.
(I know that amend is a more specific form of modify)

'correct' is the second definition.
(amending is a kind of correcting)

(Other definitions for amend that I've seen before include "Change for the better" , "Corrct error, make a minor aleration" , "Revise" , "Ameliorate" , "Change, alter" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
