Division 3.2 Checking whether the national law of the Member States authorises arrest with a view to surrender or extradition

The Member State issuing an alert shall check whether the arrest that is to be requested is authorised by the national law of the other Member States.

The following procedure has been adopted:

1. (a)

   check that all Member States are able to follow up the alert.

2. (b)

   if there is any doubt, consult the Sirene bureau concerned and transmit or exchange the information necessary for the check.

Each Member State shall take appropriate technical or organisational measures to ensure that alerts pursuant to the second sentence of Article 95(2) are only entered into the SIS after the Sirene bureau of the Member State in question has been informed.
