Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morgan of Drefelin (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 June 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Pensions Bill.
Pensions Bill
I do not have the most up-to-date figures, but I assert that the Government intend to improve the number of older people in employment. The noble Lord asked about the department’s position on public appointments. The DWP has abolished its bar on those over 65 taking public appointments.
