Equalities, Human Rights and Civil Justice Committee

Learning Disabilities, Autism and Neurodivergence Bill

Meeting date: 3 December 2024

Marie McNair

We actually want to make a difference.

Last week, Suzi Martin from the National Autistic Society praised the Scottish Government for creating the LEAP, and you mentioned in your opening statement that you plan to meet the LEAP next week to get a detailed work plan. Do you have timescales attached to that? I am sorry to put you on the spot if you do not, but it would be good if you could advise the committee, not necessarily today but maybe in writing.

Social Justice and Social Security Committee

Child Poverty (Scotland) Act 2017 (Post-legislative Scrutiny)

Meeting date: 28 November 2024

Having the data is key to that, as well.

John Dickie, do you have any comments on that?

What can be done to ensure that the action plan is truly multi-agency, and that there are multi-agency actions in it to allow people to work together a bit better?
