Question

Answer

01

Yes

Yes it needs to be clear what is included for example ADHD and sensory processing disorders

02

No

No it needs to be clear. Alot of these disorders already are undervalued and misunderstood. If it is not clear professionals will draw their own conclusions meaning a postcode lottery for a number of children and adults diagnosed

03

Yes

04

Yes

Yes definitely, alot of disorders are massively underfunded and these people and their families suffer daily

 If LA and NHS had the option to not follow the guidance then they would become the victim of funding cuts

07

As long as there is enough time for a thorough cost analysis and consultation to take place

09

Yes

Earlier if possible

10

Yes

12

Signposting, people don't know where to go. Services are oversubscribed and underfunded. Waiting lists are ridiculous forcing people to go to charities or private. Educational status such as home educators are constantly discriminated against in accessing services that are universally a fundamental right.

13

Yes

15

It should be written on the Bill.

16

Yes

17

It should happen all the time.

18

I hope it would help my child access the services required promptly without having a negative and determental effect on his health, emotional well being and education
