Govt announcement on a new "Learning Disabilities, Autism and Neurodivergence (LDAN) Bill". Sounds really broad, historically it has always been a problem to handle learning disability + autism together. There is a lot to read in the link, on a range of social topics the bill may affect, I have not had time yet, before you can form a view on whether it achieves any new real accountability.
The consultation can be found online at: consult.gov.scot/mental-health-unit/learning-disabilities-autism-neurodivergence-bill/ There is an explanation of how to respond and the consultation paper is provided in alternative formats, including: Easy Read, audio, British Sign Language, child-friendly version with an accompanying adult’s guide, and a summary version. You can also request paper copies.
We will also be providing information on upcoming consultation events at this link in the New Year.
We would be grateful if you could share this through your networks and groups. We would like this consultation to reach as many people as possible to gather their views and have their say.
You can also submit a response in writing, audio, video, or BSL video by sending via email to LDAN.Bill@gov.scot
