We will see that: (1) In ZFC, for each subspace X subset of or equal to omega(1)(2), the following are equivalent; (a)X is normal, (b) X is countably paracompact and strongly collectionwise Hausdorff, (c) X is expandable. (2) Under a variety of different set-theoretic assumptions (including V = L and PMEA) all countably paracompact subspaces of omega(1)(2) are normal. (3) All subspaces of omega(1)(2) are collectionwise Hausdorff. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
