A complaint had been made by the mother of a 13-year-old girl over an April 2014 broadcast of 98FM’s phone-in programme Dublin Talks. The complainant claimed that her daughter’s participation in the programme breached the broadcasting act’s rules on harm and offence, and the broadcasting code’s rules on harm and privacy
