Recital 10 Issuance of qualified alerts
To ensure that the scientific panel can effectively issue qualified alerts to the AI Office pursuant to Article 90 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689, the conditions, procedures and detailed arrangements for the issuance of such qualified alerts should be set out. The AI Office should provide a secure interface through which the scientific panel can transmit qualified alerts and the evidence supporting such alerts. Given the relevance and possible implications of a qualified alert for a provider of a general-purpose AI model, such an alert should require a decision by at least a simple majority of the members of the scientific panel.
