Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Employment Bill [Lords].
Employment Bill [Lords]
My hon. Friend cites organisations in the private sector, but does he acknowledge, and regret the fact, that among the most bellicose and hard-nosed employers that impose a maximum working age are organisations such as the Royal Mail? It routinely disposes of people who are fit, well, active and who know their areas well; they are lost because of the continuing pressure the organisation is under to downsize its work force.
