Joint Oireachtas Committee on Autism

Autism Policy: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Adam Harris:

I thank the Senator so much. I will go through her points as they came in. In terms of discrimination, the first part of this within the context of autism is first to actually acknowledge that it is real. Sometimes, people have a perception of autism. They see the progress that is being made in some respects in terms of awareness, they see the autism class and they do not think autistic people experience discrimination. I know I do not need to explain discrimination-----
