Article 7

Operators B shall be eliminated from the identification and notification system and the measures applied to them shall be discontinued as soon as the first evaluation referred to in Article 1 (2) proves to be unfounded.

When a Member State informs the Commission that a natural or legal person whose name had previously been notified to it under Article 5 (1) has proved, upon further investigation, not to have been implicated in the irregularity, the Commission shall without delay relay this fact to the other Member States, which shall in their turn immediately inform those to whom they had notified these personal data under Regulation (EC) No 1469/95.

That person shall then no longer be treated as a person implicated in the irregularity on the basis of the first notification.

Any operator shall be eliminated from the system of identification and notification at the end of the period of application of the measure concerned within the meaning of Article 3 (1) of Regulation (EC) No 1469/95.
