An Act to make provision about meeting the needs of adults with autistic spectrum conditions; and for connected purposes.
Act

Health Act 2009 (12th November 2009)
Primary care trusts are already able to offer personal health budgets that do not involve giving money directly to individuals. The Health Act - which received Royal Assent on 12 November 2009 - will extend these options by allowing selected primary care trust sites to test direct payments as part of a pilot. The aim is to give patients more choice and control over the care they receive.
