HC Deb 03 December 2001 vol 376 cc53-4W
Mr. Burstow

To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if she will consult on(a) employment and (b) goods and services in age discrimination legislation. [18837]

Alan Johnson

The forthcoming consultation on age discrimination legislation will focus on employment and vocational training. This is our priority, and will implement the EU employment directive. Those responding to the consultation are free, of course, to raise related matters, including the question of extending provision to goods and services.
