A few excerpts: 

‘The statutory authorities set up to protect these individuals from harm have instead colluded in attempts by the aviation industry to deflect attention away from a harmful practice. Affected individuals have been denied basic human rights - access to health care, fair and independent handling of their case by airline grievance and disciplinary procedures, and before tribunals. Airline policy to give affected individuals psychological diagnoses without toxicology tests presents me with prima facie evidence of serious breaches of medical ethics.’

‘The insistence by statutory authorities and aviation organizations that victims must prove causality of toxic injury from the workplace in each individual case, not acknowledging strong correlations that are independently corroborated and the existence of a known workplace hazard, places the onus in a way that is unfair and almost certainly unlawful. There is a legal duty to provide a safe working environment.

I am extremely unhappy with the limited and evasive replies I have received from the CAA and aviation organizations. They refuse to answer directly the questions I have put to them, and refer to research reports that are of no direct relevance, as they do not cover any fume events and do not include any injured persons.

Leaks of toxic substances into aircraft cabins have been verified in numerous accident reports and other inquiries. This risk should have been eliminated even without confirmation of toxic injuries, following the example of the automobile industry’s product recalls over safety scares.’
