Artikel 84 Auskunftsersuchen an das OLAF
Summary What does Article 84 of the Anti-money laundering regulation (AMLR) say?
This brief article is the mirror counterpart to Article 83, which governs the obligations of FIUs toward OLAF.
Here, the direction is reversed: Article 84 sets out OLAF's obligations when an FIU requests information from it.
OLAF must respond to such requests in a timely manner, but is permitted to withhold or delay that response if doing so would negatively impact an ongoing investigation, provided it communicates this refusal or postponement to the FIU along with its reasons.
Important points:
- OLAF is required to respond in a timely manner to reasoned requests for information from an FIU, where that information is necessary for the FIU's functions.
- OLAF may postpone or refuse to provide information if it would negatively impact an ongoing investigation.
- OLAF must communicate any postponement or refusal to the requesting FIU, including the reasons for it.
Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.
Das OLAF beantwortet begründete Auskunftsersuchen einer zentralen Meldestelle rechtzeitig, wenn diese Informationen für die Wahrnehmung der Aufgaben der zentralen Meldestelle gemäß Kapitel III der Richtlinie (EU) 2024/1640 erforderlich sind.
Das OLAF kann die Bereitstellung der in Absatz1 genannten Informationen aufschieben oder ablehnen, wenn es wahrscheinlich ist, dass sich diese Bereitstellung negativ auf eine laufende Untersuchung auswirken würde. Das OLAF teilt der ersuchenden zentralen Meldestelle unter Angabe der Gründe rechtzeitig mit, wenn die Bereitstellung solcher Informationen aufgeschoben oder abgelehnt wird.
