HC Deb 08 February 1940 vol 357 c430W
Mr. J. Griffiths

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that the age limit of 55 years denies the opportunity of employment to many men capable of work at various ordnance factories and, as these establishments provide the only opportunity for employment to these men in many areas, will he take steps to remove this limitation?

Mr. E. Brown

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply given by my hon. Friend the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Supply to a similar Question on 7th December last.
