National Seniors Australia Chief Advocate Ian Henschke joins Clinton Maynard to discuss what last night’s Federal Budget means for older Australians.

National Seniors had sought a package of assistance for aged pensioners including establishment of an independent tribunal to set the pension rate based on need rather than politics… increased assistance for renters… supported access to online services… expanded dental care & unlocking wealth tied up in family home.
