Procedural rules
Article 34
1. Member States shall ensure that applicants for asylum whose application is subject to a preliminary examination pursuant to Article 32 enjoy the guarantees provided for in Article 10(1). 2. Member States may lay down in national law rules on the preliminary examination pursuant to Article 32. Those rules may, inter alia : (a) oblige the applicant concerned to indicate facts and substantiate evidence which justify a new procedure; (b) require submission of the new information by the applicant concerned within a time-limit after he/she obtained such information; (c) permit the preliminary examination to be conducted on the sole basis of written submissions without a personal interview. The conditions shall not render impossible the access of applicants for asylum to a new procedure or result in the effective annulment or severe curtailment of such access. 3. Member States shall ensure that: (a) the applicant is informed in an appropriate manner of the outcome of the preliminary examination and, in case the application will not be further examined, of the reasons for this and the possibilities for seeking an appeal or review of the decision; (b) if one of the situations referred to in Article 32(2) applies, the determining authority shall further examine the subsequent application in conformity with the provisions of Chapter II as soon as possible.
