I still have no report

In May, I was diagnosed with ASD and was asked if I wanted my report. I said yes. 6 weeks later, I hadn't heard anything and asked for this report. I was given different infromation by different people - I wasn't registered at the GP surgery, they (CMHT) have lost report and was then "I have no idea what you mean".

I was promised a letter and had to phone up again last week for it. My letter? It was just I have ASD and that I am now discharged.

I have asked time and time again for a report I've been promised and have had to get PALS and the branch officer of my local NAS involved.

I have since been told they don't give out reports any more. Is this true? I need my report. I can't sort out my benefits without it and am fed up having to ask my GP to write letters for me to prove that I'm on the spectrum.

  • well, I dont see any reason they wouldn't allow you to have it,

    the point in the freedom of ino act is you are entitled to access all info that is about you, you can ask at any time to see any rercords about you, I would think especially ones that you have been told you CAN access

    so as crystal says I would ask for it again, and if they refuse ask why, the specific reason, who has made this decision and is this supported by the frredom of info act and why a socicitor is being cited as the only way to get it if you are entiteld to have  it due to  the freedom of info act

    or research it yourself, what kind of info you are entitled to, and go in there already knowing the answers, if you go in and KNOW you are definitely entitled to it, there's not much they can do, except what they are doing, giving you the run around

    form what i can tell of reading some of the info on the freedom of info act the only real reason they have to refuse you info is if it is in public intrest to withold it, given that your disabiloity and info can be of benefit to you and employers i am not seeing a reason for them to withold it

    or , if the cost is too high for them to pay to have it copied and sent, and that sounds about right for bureacrats, its all about the money,

    it says on this site that you wont be able to get ALL info about you because it would cost too much, but as you dont want all info you should have no problem, you just want this one thing, and that is on your side, i wouldnt ask for everything, otherwise they have a good reason to refuse you

    and you may be asked to pay a fee for the report anything from £10 to 50 apparantly
