HC Deb 27 May 1988 vol 134 cc392-3W
Mr. Sheerman

To ask the Secretary of State for Employment what provision is to be made for handicapped people working in sheltered workshops affected by the abolition of the job release scheme.

Mr. Lee

While we appreciate the particular problems of people with disabilities who are approaching retirement age it is for those organisations which provide employment in sheltered workshops to determine arrangements under which employees may retire from employment.
