White Lead (Painting) Convention, 1921 (No. 13) - Cuba (RATIFICATION: 1928)

The Committee notes the detailed information contained in the Government's report and the legal texts that have been communicated. It also notes the Government's information to the effect that there is still no official register of statistical data on morbidity and mortality due to lead poisoning. The Committee notes that the Ministry of Public Health, which is the body responsible for such matters, is to take the necessary measures to compile statistics on occupational diseases. The Committee hopes that the Government will continue to supply information on any progress made and that it will provide statistics on lead poisoning, in accordance with Article 7 of the Convention and the report form.
