Proceeding contribution from Nadine Dorries (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 27 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Autism Bill.

Autism Bill

I, too, congratulate my hon. Friend on introducing the Bill. She has mentioned people's exclusion from the services provided in their local area. There is a lottery regarding the provision that children with an autistic spectrum disorder or Asperger's syndrome receive. We also know that three out of four children in pupil referral units are on the autistic spectrum. That is why the Bill is so important, because it would ensure that those children were identified, enabling adequate provision to be secured for them.
