On Your Behalf: Energy Prices, Buses and Benefits

Energy Prices, Buses and Benefits

BBC Radio Ulster - On Your Behalf, Energy Prices, Buses and Benefits

Linda McAuley on energy prices, benefit changes and bus passes, plus everything you ever wanted to know about cremation but were afraid to ask.

Energy prices are going up yet the wholesale costs are coming down. Energy regulator John French tells Linda why and what to expect over the next few months.

A number of changes to benefits come in this month - Matt Cole from Advice NI explains how to get Disability Support Payments and how the rise in childcare payments works here. 

Might you be about to lose your Smartpass? A consultation has begun on raising the age to 65+. The Commissioner for Older People is deeply concerned and tells Linda why he see's it as a lifeline for older people.

And everything you ever wanted to know about cremation but were afraid to ask as Linda visits Northern Ireland's newest facility which opens next week.
