Rejected petition Shorten the time scale it takes to get someone diagnosed with autism

The time scale to get our children diagnosed can take years and in the process of that our children are suffering more. There has to be a quicker way

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do in order to shorten the timescale for diagnosing autism.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, if the long time it takes for a diagnosis is because there aren't enough qualified healthcare professionals, you could ask the Government to increase funding.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
