Mr. Pat Mellon:

There is a capitalist element. The Deputy spoke about people having to retire at the top of their game, which implies they were at the top of their salaries from a company’s point of view. Companies can use mandatory retirement as an excuse to get rid of people. We all remember the discussion around yellow-pack workers. There might be a strong element of that in this case, and that would be an abuse. We are a corporate-friendly country, but there has to be a social aspect as well. It cannot be all take and no give.
