Dear All,

In relation to the ACSQHS advisory posted below Im interested to know the following:

– have organisations been able to access/obtain all the standards that you are required to meet in AS:4187:2014 (i.e. AS and ISO standards)?

– what was the cost associated with obtaining these standards (i.e. ISO standards)?

– have organisations been able to develop an audit tool that include standards (i.e. ISO standards) that are referred to in AS4187:2014?
