HC Deb 29 March 1965 vol 709 c158W
64. Mr. Wainwright

asked the Minister of Health if he will take the necessary steps to widen the age limits for nurse-training so that more recruits will be encouraged to enter the nursing profession.

Mr. Loughlin

The minimum age of entry to nurse training is a matter for the General Nursing Council who are, I understand, reviewing it. The Council has not laid down upper age limits.
