Proceeding contribution from Liz Blackman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 19 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Autism Bill.


Autism Bill

Does the hon. Lady not agree that the many people who have high-functioning autism and have never had a diagnosis will be extremely difficult to identify? I am sure that there are data that could help local authorities, primary care trusts and the like to try to make a diagnosis, and to try to identify such people. It will be tricky to do so, and real, proactive commitment is needed, but it is important that we do so.
