	Description:		Campaigners for victims of pension and investment fraud met with the Treasury this week. We'll hear from the Conservative MP who is the co-chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Investment Fraud, Caroline Nokes, who was at that meeting. What's the latest for working parents of two year olds planning to take advantage of the free 15 hours of childcare in term time which begins in April? Thieves are stealing the identities of bereaved families to try and steal money from friends and relatives of the person who has died. The National Association of Funeral Directors says it has seen a spike of such frauds in the past few weeks in Northern Ireland. What do you need to look out for? And, some new rules started this month for platforms which allow people to sell goods online. We'll clear up some confusion after listeners contacted the programme. Presenter: Paul Lewis Reporters: Dan Whitworth and Sarah Rogers Researchers: Sandra Hardial and Jo Krasner Editor: Jess Quayle (First broadcast 12pm Saturday 27th Jan, 2024)
