Article 24

Where a Member State is planning to reintroduce border control at internal borders under Article 23(1), it shall as soon as possible notify the other Member States and the Commission accordingly, and shall supply the following information as soon as available: the reasons for the proposed reintroduction, detailing the events that constitute a serious threat to public policy or internal security; the scope of the proposed reintroduction, specifying where border control is to be reintroduced; the names of the authorised crossing-points; the date and duration of the proposed reintroduction; where appropriate, the measures to be taken by the other Member States. Following the notification from the Member State concerned, and with a view to the consultation provided for in paragraph 3, the Commission may issue an opinion without prejudice to Article 64(1) of the Treaty. The information referred to in paragraph 1, as well as the opinion that the Commission may provide in accordance with paragraph 2, shall be the subject of consultations between the Member State planning to reintroduce border control, the other Member States and the Commission, with a view to organising, where appropriate, mutual cooperation between the Member States and to examining the proportionality of the measures to the events giving rise to the reintroduction of border control and the threats to public policy or internal security. The consultation referred to in paragraph 3 shall take place at least fifteen days before the date planned for the reintroduction of border control.
