NATIONAL AUTISM SOCIETY

Motion Text

That this House commends the National Autism Society (NAS) for its work to increase and expand diagnosis and support services for those with autism and related developmental problems; recognises the importance of ensuring that diagnosis and support services are effective and targeted to eradicate the isolation and ignorance that those with autism are at risk of experiencing; recognises that effective services can only be achieved by the Government working closely with the NAS, local authorities and primary care trusts in order to develop knowledge and expertise of autism; and calls on the Government to build these relationships in order to transform the lives of both adults and children with autism.
