| Annotation | A brief article that considers whether age discrimination legislation itself is discriminatory, as it is of more benefit to those in less need, rather than those who are more needy, due to the government's own social policies which fail to redress health and social inequalities. The context is the White Paper, 'Framework for a fairer future - the Equality Bill', given the inadequacies of the age discrimination regulations passed in October 2006. (KJ/RH). |
