OECD Leaded Petrol Ban Scorecard

The Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) website www.oecd.org/ehs/LEAD/reports.htm contains half a dozen documents under the heading Co-ordinating International Activities Aimed at Reducing Lead in Gasoline: A JOINT PROJECT BETWEEN OECD AND UNEP.

It is worth noting that while Japan was the first country outside Europe and North America to join the OECD, and Australia was the second - Japan was the first OECD member country to ban leaded petrol (in 1980) and Australia may be the last (in 2002).
