Review of Autism Services 2016

The request was partially successful.

Dear NHS South East Staffordshire and Seisdon Peninsula Clinical Commissioning Group,

I would like to request the report following the CCG review into Autism services in 2016.

The review outlined failings in regards to a "not fit for purpose" service specification and stated that the CCG could not be assured of the quality of the services providing care to autistic children in Staffordshire. This is evidenced in documentation attached as an appendix to the review report from 2018.

Should the CCG not have this report could we get an explanation as to why documents have not been stored correctly, leading to one of the providers concerned seemingly suggesting the review report does not exist!

Would the lack of documents held by the CCG and the lack of subsequent action be due to this being described by the CCG as "a low value contract"?

Yours faithfully,

Juila Carter
