I can understand what the government are trying to do with this law, but as with so many they have got it wrong! Ok I shouldn't be allowed to say 'Looking someone in the range 25-30', but to also ban us from saying 'looking for someone with 5 years experiance', that is just wrong. It is just going to mean that more unsuitable people apply for jobs.

In our office everyone is between the ages of 25 and 35. There are just cultural reasons why we do not want to employ someone who is 65. We do not advertise this way, but that is always in the back of peoples minds, 'would they fit in here'.

I guess we now need to look for a woman, with a disability, on some ethnic minority or other who is over 60. She would be able to come late, go early, do nothing, but be a valuable member of the team filling all our government set quoters!
