Article 33

Where a person as referred to in Article 32 is located, the competent authorities shall, subject to paragraph 2, communicate his whereabouts to the Member State issuing the alert. They may, in the cases referred to in Article 32(2)(a) move the person to a safe place in order to prevent him from continuing his journey, if so authorised by national law. The communication, other than between the competent authorities, of data on a missing person who has been located and who is of age shall be subject to that person's consent. However, the competent authorities may communicate the fact that the alert has been erased because the person has been located to the person who reported the person missing.
