Finally, Amendment 152, tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Bennett, would require regular reports to be published on the resources available to support research into mental health care for autistic people and people with learning difficulties, including those who may be detained under the Mental Health Act, and on the adequacy of training for staff in new approaches to mental health care for those groups of people. I agree with the noble Baroness that these are important matters, because we need to be able to update and improve practice as the evidence base develops.
