Money Box

Mansion House and Council Tax for Terminally Ill


Listen Later

It was a momentous day on Tuesday as the government and regulators announced major changes in the way investments will be sold. What's been proposed and what's the role of the regulator, the Financial Conduct Authority, in that?

Inflation rose to 3.6%, this week the highest it has been since January 2024 - what's behind that?

And two of the UK's leading end of life charities have told Money Box people given less than 12 months to live should not have to pay Council Tax before they die. The call from Marie Curie and Hospice UK comes just a few weeks after Manchester City Council became what's believed to be the first local authority in the UK to introduce such a scheme.

Presenter: Paul Lewis

Reporters: Dan Whitworth and Jo Krasner
