– High-risk Identification: Competent authorities can pinpoint high-risk scenarios based on factors like spot checks, risk analysis outcomes, information system data, or inputs from other authorities and substantiated concerns.
– Interim Measures: In such instances, authorities can enact interim measures per Article 23, including suspending the product’s market availability. This suspension typically ends within three working days or 72 hours for perishables.
– Extension Possibility: If deemed necessary after initial checks, authorities may extend the suspension in three-day increments to ensure Regulation compliance is verified.
