MP Brings Autism Law Nearer, UK

First out of the private members’ ballot, Cheryl Gillan MP, brought the first ever autism law a step closer today, announcing she will take forward the Autism Bill, with the backing of The National Autistic Society (NAS) and 13 other autism charities. The MP for Chesham and Amersham declared her support in response to local authorities’ complete failure to meet the needs of the over half a million children and adults with autism in the UK.
