Legal requirements

Does anyone know if there's any legal obligation to inform people of an ASD diagnosis? I'm thinking of people like insurers, mortgage companies, DVLA...others? I've not long been diagnosed (in my 50s) and haven't a clue!

Thanks, Chris

"You must tell DVLA if you have autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and it affects your ability to drive safely.

If your driving is not affected by autism, you do not need to tell DVLA. Ask your doctor if you’re unsure."

I don't know anyone who's autism efects their ability to drive. The goverment is just hedging it's bets.
