The Autism Act 2009 received Royal Assent in November of that year thanks to a huge campaign effort and cross-party support in Parliament.
In 2010 the strategy "Fulfilling and Rewarding Lives" was published. One of the outcomes identified the need to increase awareness and understanding of autism across the public sector.
