Raise the retirement age for women to 65

From Callum Shaw.
WITH all the talk of how to plug the deficit in the Islands finances, and the talk of budget cuts, it seems to me that there is one issue that has, thus far, been largely overlooked.
The fairest and most effective strategy would be to raise the retirement age for women to sixty-five, in line with men.
In an age where equality is viewed as so essential, and its pursuit extends to all aspects of life, I am surprised that this issue has not been brought up before.
Does anybody know the historical reasons as to why the difference in age was first introduced, and if so, why has this issue has not been seriously explored before?
