Article 24

If the data concerned were transmitted to Europol by a Member State, Europol shall transmit them to the entities referred to in Article 22(1) and Article 23(1) only with that Member State’s consent. The Member State concerned may give its prior consent, in general terms or subject to specific conditions, to such transmission. Such consent may be withdrawn at any time. If the data were not transmitted by a Member State, Europol shall satisfy itself that transmission of those data is not liable to: obstruct the proper performance of the tasks in respect of which a Member State is competent; jeopardise the security or public order of a Member State or otherwise prejudice its general welfare. Europol shall be responsible for the legality of the transmission of data. Europol shall keep a record of all transmissions of data under this Article and of the grounds for such transmissions. Data shall be transmitted only if the recipient gives an undertaking that the data will be used only for the purpose for which they were transmitted.
