HC Deb 25 January 1949 vol 460 c103W
98. Mr. Hale

asked the Minister of National Insurance whether he is aware of the growing concern at the disincentives to continued work by elderly people involved in the new insurance regulations; and whether he will give the matter re-consideration.

Mr. J. Griffiths

The special incentives to the elderly to remain at work which are a feature of the new scheme of retirement pensions have only been in force for six months, and it is too soon to judge what effect they are having.
