Baroness Uddin – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Work and Pensions

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Baroness Uddin on 2014-06-05.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government how many people with autismspectrum disorder currently receive support under the Independent Living Fund.

Lord Freud

It is not possible to calculate this because the Independent Living Fund’s systems categorise its users by their main condition only; it is not known therefore how many users may have an autism spectrum disorder in addition to the main disability or health condition recorded.
