Abstract
Beta decay is a well tested probe of nuclear structure for near-stable nuclei. This contribution focusses on specific changes in beta decay processes that may occur in halo nuclei. Certain decay branches appear to proceed mainly directly to continuum states. As an example the beta-delayed proton emission from \(^{11}\)Be is discussed in detail.
