If a person with Autism Spectrum Disorder does not appear to be suffering from a mental disorder and is not in need of care and control, a place of safety as defined in the Mental Health Act 1983 would not be an appropriate environment. In these cases appropriate alternative measures of support should be sought in line with the needs of that individual.</p> answering member constituency Truro and Falmouth answering member printed Sarah Newton question first answered 12/12/2016 16:40:22 answering member 4071 label Biography information for Sarah Newton
