Specifications for paints for drinking water tanks?

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of any simple to understand (or even not so simple to understand) specifications for paints for the inside of drinking water tanks? I have checked the ISO standards and there does not seem to be any details available here. The UK Water Industry covers this under the The Water Supply (Water Quality) Regulations 2016, 31 (which is not specific about the requirements but talks more about who can certify) and the DWI provides a list of named products, but I can't seem to locate any general guidance on how the certificiation should be made?

If anyone has seen any spec info from any source that would be great. If anyone has any examples of country specs from a low income country even better.

Many thanks

Sarah
