HC Deb 12 December 1966 vol 738 cc4-5W
54. Mr. Kenneth Lewis

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the difficulty in redeploying the over-40s, he will review the services provided by the Professional and Executive Register so as to give further assistance to these people.

Mr. Gunter

The answer to this problem lies as much in the attitude of employers and the demand for executives and professional people as in the kind of machinery needed to bring them together. But we do regularly review the service and allow for extra staff to deal with the special difficulty of placing older people.
