YOUNG PEOPLE WITH AUTISM

The motion

That this House notes the recent publication of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Autism's report on the transition from children's to adult services for young people with autism; further notes the report's conclusion that despite pockets of good practice across the UK transition services are still failing most young people with autism; recognises that these failings lead to a waste of talent, lives and money; further recognises the steps the Government has taken to address this situation; and calls on the Government to implement all the report's recommendations to improve outcomes for this vulnerable group.
