The ride-hailing company says it's closing it's business from mid-April. Matt Cox spoke to Paul Henty, Partner and competition law expert at law firm Charles Russell-Speechlys.

You may have heard it confirmed yesterday that 10 treatments are involved in the first round of the shake-up by NHS England chief executive Simon Stevens. What difference will this make? Galen Rosenberg, owner of the Maple Leaf Pharmacy spoke to Nigel Cassidy to discuss this further.
