Access to services which understand and are able to meet the needs of people specifically related to their autism. 3. Removal of short-term barriers such as unaddressed diagnoses and delayed intervention. 4. Access to appropriate post-diagnostic support for families and individuals (particularly when there is a late diagnosis). 5. Adherence to existing commissioning guidelines by local authorities, the NHS, and other relevant service providers.

  6. The Scottish Strategy for Autism. WHOLE LIFE JOURNEY: By 5 years 1. Access to integrated service provision across the lifespan to address the multi‑dimensional aspects of autism. 2. Access to appropriate transition planning across the lifespan. 3. Consistent adoption of good practice guidance in key areas of education, health and social care across local authority areas. 4. Capacity and awareness-building in mainstream services to ensure people are met with recognition of autism rather than ignorance.
