No, it wasn't but I was thinking its placement in a public space (yes, I
know RC is privately owned, but the open spaces are treated like they are
public) might require the approval of the watch-dog if it still exists. I
confess, I do not know.

From what I can gather, the sculpture is not obscene in terms of sexuality
but obscene in terms of having her head hitting the ground and considered
offensive and insensitive.
