    every council in the country has been given £35K to develop an autism strategy for their region.

    About time! in America Autism and Aspergers is more supported and understood.

    So 35k for a 'strategy' i.e a consultation, some investigations, paperwork etc.

    Where does the money come from for the next stage i.e actually doing something to help?

    Your head isn't being ripped off. Its yet another exercise of jobs for the boys with no outcome. You'll see.
