Labour manifesto sleight of hand, or a sub-editing error?

Compare and contrast on p46 of the Labour manifesto:

We created the right to request flexible working for parents and carers.

And


By the end of the next Parliament we will ensure that the right to flexible working is extended for older
people
.

Incidentally, in a rare outbreak of the Lib Dems getting something right where the other two get it wrong, the LDs index their manifesto.  For which thanks.

Even under the evil Thatch anyone had the *freedom* to ask for flexible working. Of course employers still have plenty of freedom to refuse such a request. This is just as it should be.
