So is there really any good reason for removing lead from electronic
components and PCBs

If specifications are made, presumably everyone providing goods
has to comply. That should put competition on an even level.

there might be some truth to that is everyone did what they 'should',
but consumer electronics, primarily imported asian goods, routinely
flouts basic legal requirements.

So why aren't the people importing them prosecuted? Why isn't the
stock impounded?

I dont know, I suppose no-one cares enough to do it.
