The procedure referred to in this Article may also be applicable in the case of: a dependant who lodges an application after he or she has, in accordance with Article 7(2), consented to have his or her case be part of an application lodged on his or her behalf; and/or an unmarried minor who lodges an application after an application has been lodged on his or her behalf pursuant to Article 7(5)(c). In those cases, the preliminary examination referred to in paragraph 2 will consist of examining whether there are facts relating to the dependant’s or the unmarried minor’s situation which justify a separate application.
