On Your Behalf: Travel Advice, Consumer Rights and Birth Certificates in Lockdown

Travel Advice, Consumer Rights and Birth Certificates in Lockdown

BBC Radio Ulster - On Your Behalf, Travel Advice, Consumer Rights and Birth Certificates in Lockdown

Birth certificates, travel advice and consumer rights.

The lockdown babies with no birth certificates, updated travel advice and your right of return for faulty goods.

To travel or not to travel? 'Confusion is an understatement' in the words of travel agent Sandra Corkin, who chats to Linda about recently updated travel advice, and the ever changing government 'safe list'. Why is advice in Northern Ireland different to England? 

The babies born during lockdown that don't officially exist because local council offices were closed during the pandemic. What does this mean for new parents, and can they claim child benefit in the meantime? 

And, Patricia Doonan of Belfast Consumer Advice Centre chats purchase, repair and replacement rights on faulty electrical items and how consumer law is different for online purchases.
