"A pre-recorded section of Radio 1's Jo Whiley Show on 20th April 2006 featured a phone competition in which a member of Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ staff posed as a caller from the audience. The incident came to light following the recent publication of further editorial breaches. A number of staff members have been disciplined. We would like to make clear that Jo Whiley was unaware that the caller was not a genuine member of the public. The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Trust's Editorial Standards Committee have been informed of this today."
