Division 5.3 After a hit

The end-user may require the Sirene bureau to supply supplementary information to allow effective implementation of the procedures laid down in SIS tables 4, 10 or 16 as set out in Annex 4.

Unless stated otherwise, the issuing Member State must be informed of the hit and its outcome.

This procedure has technical implications, as the alert then has to be processed. It may need to be deleted, which may mean that another alert, which had previously been excluded from the system, can now be entered.
