| Message | We support moving in the direction of article 1, and also accept movement on article 2, but not so drastic. Such a measure would surely only reinforce the cycle of poverty that this government is working hard to break. Harvey Jones Justice Minister |

| Message | A reduction in the school leaving age is very sensible, but lowering the retirement age would be economically irresponsible. We face enough of a problem trying to fund future pension commitments anyway, because the population is living longer. James Cholmondely Wolfpack Leader |
