The current status of the reaction rate of $^{22}$Ne($\alpha$,n)$^{25}$Mg issummarized. Among the latest new results, probably the most relevant is theconclusion that the E$_x$=11.15 MeV state in $^{26}$Mg has a non-naturalparity, so it does not contribute to the rates of the $\alpha$ + $^{22}$Nereactions. However, it may be possible that other neighboring states contributeto the neutron yield at stellar temperatures. Here we make an account of someof the experimental work in the literature that is relevant to this state.Indeed, it would have been possible to avoid the controversy regarding thisstate before it even started.
