Access to Work

Peter White asks if the government is stopping Access to Work funding for people who do not earn enough money.

Access to Work is designed to give disabled people the help they need to get a job. But You and Yours has learned that people are now having their support re-assessed if they don't earn enough. Peter look at more complaints about the Commonwealth Games ticketing system. This time that the window to re-sell tickets was too short, and not advertised well enough. We look at the 'lead generator' websites that charge people just for looking for a payday loan. And we report from Germany on the young professionals solving the housing shortage by building their own.
