I do not have any specific questions for Ms Dada; I have a lot of general questions that would apply to everyone. Ms Dada identified as being the daughter of immigrants and being first generation black Irish, and said she experienced a lot of racism because of her colour but being autistic also made things more complicated. How was she identified as autistic? What pathway did she use? We have already said at the committee that there is no public pathway to being assessed as autistic. I presume she always knew she was autistic but how was she assessed?
