§7.6.5.2 Structure

The internal area is destined for market surveillance authorities, single liaison offices, customs authorities and the Commission. It contains all information available (product description, test results, measures taken etc.). Only ICSMS account holders may access this area. The public area is destined for consumers, users and manufacturers. The information which is visible to the public provides only the data, which reference the product and its non-compliance and not any internal documents (i.e. information exchange between authority and importer/manufacturer). ICSMS enables specific searches for non-compliant products. Confidentiality aspects are protected by a system of access authorisations. Each market surveillance authority can input data about investigated products, which are not already in the database and add information (e.g. additional tests results, measures taken) to an already existing product information file. The Commission ensures the proper functioning of ICSMS. The use of ICSMS is free of charge.
