On Your Behalf: Gone fishing, breaking down in England, and a Child Benefit deadline

26/08/2023

Gone fishing, breaking down in England, and a Child Benefit deadline

BBC Radio Ulster - On Your Behalf, Gone fishing, breaking down in England, and a Child Benefit deadline

Anglers at Loughgall Country Park, a broken down van in limbo in England, and HMRC advice.

Linda McAuley hears from anglers at Loughgall Country Park, the owners of a broken down van that is still in limbo in England, and advice from the HMRC about child benefit.

Some anglers at Loughgall Country Park aren't happy with changes that mean going fishing can't be a spontaneous decision but now needs 48 hours notice to access the lakeside. If you break down on the side of the road in England will your breakdown cover get you and your vehicle home? We hear from one family whose van has been in limbo for three and a half weeks. And with GCSE results out this week, child benefit will stop for some children unless parents tell HMRC that their children are staying in education. Linda McAuley finds out more.
