That this House congratulates the Vale of Leven Autism and Asperger's Forum (VOLAAF) on being awarded the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service, the MBE for voluntary groups, which is the highest form of recognition for voluntary organisations; believes that VOLAAF carries out invaluable work in supporting parents and carers of families affected by Autism spectrum disorders and is a worthy recipient of this award; notes that the VOLAAF is based within the West of Scotland Autism and Asperger's Centre in the Renton area of West Dunbartonshire and seeks to build relationships with local authorities and health partnerships to ensure that the centre is open to all those who require assistance; considers that both the volunteers' dedication and hard work deserve the highest praise; and wishes them continued success for the future.
