Longman, I am sure you would have a contribution or two for this?

Those that can't or don't want to take part can email questions in beforehand.

  • Thanks IntenseWorld and Dream. autism@dh.gisi.gov.uk is the general email for comment on the current review of the Autism Act progress, and the one I used recently to ask a set of questions. I never got a reply, but having copied my MP in on it, he got that first response from the Employment Minister fobbing me off with how the work capability assessments were doing.  I'm still waiting for my reply to that, and another question directed at the Minister for Employment about what they understood about the difficulties facing people in work, to be answered.

    So interesting that Mike Swaffield responds to my sensory issues question with a reference to the workplace.

    But looks from the answers in general that he has a lot to learn. Can NAS arrange to meet him for an in depth discussion, and let us know the outcomes here?
