Autism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Cheryl Gillan (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 27 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Autism Bill.
That is my point exactly, and I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman. I sought to legislate for England and Wales, having been advised that Northern Ireland and Scotland would be outwith the Bill's scope. His point highlights my problem. Around May last year, my hon. Friend the Member for Tiverton and Honiton introduced a ten-minute Bill, but a magic two days before, a prevalence study was announced. However, it has not been delivered. That is yet another example of non-delivery. I cannot roll over on a set of promises. That is absolutely not possible at this stage.
