HC Deb 28 June 1971 vol 820 c2W
44. Mr. Alec Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales how many autistic children there are in Wales; and what proposals there are for their treatment and education.

Mr. Peter Thomas

Information on this matter is lacking and I have asked all Welsh authorities to let me know by October the number of autistic children for whose education they are responsible and the arrangements proposed for their education.
