Welcome for government U turn on mandatory retirement age

Liz Lynne, LibDem MEP and long time campaigner against age discrimination, has welcomed reports of a Government U-turn on the mandatory retirement age. The Government has announced that a review of the practice of allowing employers to force workers over the age of 65 to retire is to be brought forward by a year. It has also been widely reported that most Ministers have already concluded that the mandatory retirement age should come to an end.
