HC Deb 24 November 1954 vol 533 c136W
95. Mr. Walker-Smith

asked the Assistant Postmaster-General how far it is the policy in the Accountant-General's Department of the General Post Office to require retirement at an age earlier than 65 years; and for what reason.

Mr. Gammans

The practice followed in the Accountant-General's Department of the Post Office conforms with the Government's policy, namely, that all fit and willing civil servants who are fully efficient shall be employed as long as is practicable.
