HC Deb 08 December 1978 vol 959 c105W
49. Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Employment what steps he proposes taking further to encourage men over 60 years of age to retire in order to make their jobs available for young school leavers.

Mr. Golding:

We are currently advertising the job release scheme which offers tax-free allowances to men of 64 who leave work early and release jobs for unemployed persons.
