UK charity threatens legal action over two-year NHS wait for ADHD/autism assessments

ADHD UK has sent a legal letter to West Yorkshire NHS integrated care board alleging that its policy of a minimum two-year wait for ADHD and autism assessments is unlawful, and threatens judicial review if not reversed. The claim is based on the charity's letter as reported by the Guardian; the ICB has not yet responded publicly. This highlights systemic NHS capacity constraints and could set a precedent for legal challenges to care rationing.
