asked Her Majesty's Government:

What public appointments have an age limit of (a) 60; (b) 65; and (c) 70; and whether any consideration is being given to removing the upper age limits. [HL842]

The detailed information requested is not held centrally. Under the Employment Equality (Age) Regulations 2006, upper age limits are to be applied to offices only where there is a justifiable case for doing so. As a result, there are no upper age limits in place for the vast majority of public appointments.
