The National Autism Plan for Children

These guidelines address identification, assessment, diagnosis and access to early interventions for pre-school and primary school age children with autism. The report was published in 2003 in collaboration with the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health and the Royal College of Psychiatrists. It is designed for parents and for all who work with children.
