On monitoring standards across Departments and local authorities, will Ms Tallant state whether the Government is implementing what is needed in its own facilities? This Parliament is in the process of becoming an autism-friendly building. The reality is that no Government building or local authority building in the country is autism friendly. Having regard to other areas within Ms Tallant's remit, will she state whether all the local authorities and Departments have stepped up to the mark so far? The reality is every local authority and Department building will have to follow what we are doing and make the changes needed, including through sensory auditing and the rolling out of training. Training, knowledge and understanding are key across all organisations. Based on Ms Tallant's monitoring experience, will she state whether the organisations have stepped up to the mark?
