Could you please send the current waiting time, referral to assessment, for a person awaiting an ASD assessment in Wales.
Some additional details that would also be useful:
1. A gender breakdown
2. Differences across health boards
3. The average waiting time at the end of each of the last 10 years.
4. The demography of those that have been referred (i.e., gender/age) for each of the last 10 years.
