(1) The Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Guidelines apply to all WA Country Health Service (WACHS) hospitals.
(2 - 3) WACHS has a
Disability Access and Inclusion Plan 2007 - 2010
and each region had established committees for implementing the plan.
(4) WACHS is unable to answer this question and this issue needs to be addressed with the Universities.
