Convenio sobre la cerusa (pintura), 1921 (núm. 13) - Azerbaiyán (Ratificación : 1992)

Article 1 of the Convention. Prohibition of the use of white lead and sulphate of lead, and of all products containing these pigments, in the internal painting of buildings. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to take all relevant measures to give effect to this Article of the Convention in law and practice. The Committee notes that in its report the Government once again indicates that white lead is not used in modern construction and painting work in the country, due in part to the low quality and high cost of white lead in comparison with other painting materials. The Committee notes however that the legislation and regulations listed by the Government do not specifically prohibit the use of white lead and sulphate of lead and of all products containing these pigments in the internal painting of buildings. Noting that the Government indicates that white lead is not used in modern construction and painting work in the country, the Committee requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken to expressly prohibit the use of white lead and sulphate of lead and of all products containing these pigments in the internal painting of buildings.
