(b) The providing Sirene bureau sends the fingerprints and pictures it has received to its national identification service for comparison and asks for the result through the same path.
(c) The providing Sirene bureau provides the result in an L form (in field 083) to the discovering Sirene bureau.
After comparison, the fingerprints and pictures of a reported person may be kept in the file by the discovering Sirene bureau in case further comparisons are required
The fingerprints and pictures of a person not matching the data of the reported person which have been exchanged via Sirene must be processed in accordance with the provisions of Title VI of the Schengen Convention and more specifically Articles 126 and 129 thereof (and, where applicable, the provisions of Directive 95/46/EC) and with the legislation in force in that area in the States concerned.
