§ Mr. CLYNESasked the President of the Board of Trade whether the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company has issued, in the civil engineering department, notices to men over forty years of age, advising them to be on the lookout for other employment; if so, what is the reason; and whether he is aware that trouble is threatened if men are to be displaced for reasons of age only?
§ Sir A. GEDDESI have not heard of this matter before. I am making inquiries, and will let the right hon. Gentleman know the result.
