A challenge by Age Concern to UK laws which allow employers to compel workers to retire at 65 has been rejected by an Advocate-General, a senior legal advisor to the European Court of Justice.
The Advocate-General's view could influence the judges who are expected to give their ruling just before Christmas, but it is not binding.
Some 260 people in Britain have cases in employment tribunals which depend on the European Court's ultimate decision.
