Key
points raised during the discussion:
- Six public questions
were received.
- A Member of the
public asked a supplementary question on why the specific advice
from NHS England (NHSE) regarding autism diagnosis was not taken on
board. The Associate Director for Integrated Children’s
Commissioning stated that the NHSE report was correct in the
ambition it set out, and it was a national challenge to implement
it. There was hope with the work set out in the report that
Mindworks could, more clearly, join up with the ambitions of the
NHSE report and meet the needs of Surrey’s population through
support and an improved access to diagnosis.
