Consultations

Public consultations are a key way of getting involved in the process of government policy making. Government departments carry out public consultations whenever options are being considered for a new policy or if new regulation or guidance is planned.

At TreeHouse we actively respond to government consultations which have relevance for the care and education of children with autism. In this section you will find copies of the consultation documents we have responded to and our responses.
