§ 84. Mrs. Ayrton Gouldasked the Minister of Labour if he is aware that a considerable number of men and women over 45 years of age are unable to get work of any kind although they are in good health and often have useful experience; and if he will take steps to prevent this unnecessary loss of valuable manpower.
§ The Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Labour (Mr. Ness Edwards)I would refer my hon. friend to the reply given to the hon. member for Taunton (Mr. Collins) on 29th April, a copy of which I am sending her.
