| Message | We agree to the principle, but isn't 60 too early in comparison? We might be running the risk of losing a lot of experienced workforce, and thus weakening the economy, especially when the NRU is trying to increase the time spent in school. |
| Date | 15:56:52, September 10, 2006 CET | From | Central Block | To | Debating the Retirement Age Reduction |
| Message | Very well, then. We will change the the proposed age to 65. |
