Classifying parts of a document
Article 7
1. In accordance with Article 22(6) of Decision (EU, Euratom) 2015/444, the overall classification level of a document shall be at least as high as that of its most highly classified component. When information from various sources is collated, the final aggregated document shall be reviewed to determine its overall security classification level, since it may warrant a higher classification than its component parts. 2. Documents containing classified and non-classified parts shall be structured and marked so that components with different classification and/or sensitivity levels can be easily identified and detached if necessary. This shall enable each part to be handled appropriately when detached from the other components.
