HOUSING AUTHORITY — CLIMATE CONTROL POLICY
1184. Hon WILSON TUCKER to the Leader of the House
representing the Minister for Housing:
I
refer the minister to the Housing Authority rental policy manual ,
particularly the climate control policy, which states —
The
Housing Authority will install ceiling fans to properties in the North West or
Kalgoorlie and remote areas.
I am sure the minister is aware
that under the government housing air conditioning policy, government employee
accommodation north of the twenty-sixth parallel is equipped with air
conditioning.
(1) When was the climate control
policy last reviewed?
(2) Is the climate control policy
based upon a climatic discomfort index?
