The House of Lords Autism Act Committee’s November 2025 report, Time to Delivery: The Autism Act 2009 and the new autism strategy, has been welcomed by SJOG. The Committee’s central finding was that the Autism Act and subsequent strategies have ultimately failed to tackle the key barriers required to improve outcomes for autistic people and serves as a compelling directive for the fundamental change in operational strategy.
SJOG’s strategic commitment builds upon the recommendations outlined in this crucial report, focusing on rigorous planning, accountability and person-centred service transformation through capable environments so that autistic people can flourish.
Dr Lisa Alcorn’s, SJOG’s Chief Operating Officer, report provides a summary of essential insights: https://sjog.uk/pdf/Autism-Committee-Overview.pdf
