I'm looking forward to the first 13 year old suing after being
turned down for a job.

How old was Ruth Lawrence when she got her maths O Level?

fairly young, istr.

i had 6 o-levels before my 14th birthday.

Can we OP 'real' life? If so, I OP that at some point surprisingly soon
after the introduction of the legislation someone will start a case based on
the premise thet they were considered too young for the job.

And TBH, all things being equal, It think this hypothetical person probably
has a point. But it's not what the Government/Press/Sundry Important People
are expecting and I'll be interested to see the reaction.

well, of course.

a sub-teen youth liaison officer might be an amusing thing to observe.
