specific check

A specific action to be taken on the basis of the alert if national law so allows. If allowed, the end user is required to take action which is similar to what would normally be categorised under national law as a ‘stop and search’ and therefore the subject must be given all the procedural rights to which they are entitled under national law. A specific check involves a thorough search of the described person, any vehicle they might be using, the persons accompanying the subject, luggage and other objects. It also involves gathering the same information as a discreet check or inquiry checks.
