2. the name and address of the issuing judicial authority,
3. whether an enforceable judgment, arrest warrant or another enforceable judicial decision with the same legal effect has been received,
4. the nature and legal assessment of the criminal offence, including the statutory provisions,

(2) The issuing of an alert for arrest for the purpose of transfer or extradition under Council Decision 2007/533/JHA of 12 June 2007 on the establishment, operation and use of the second generation Schengen Information System (SIS II) (OJ L 205, 7.8.2007, p. 63) which contains the particulars designated in subsection (1) nos. 1 to 6 or to which these particulars were subsequently added is deemed to be a European Arrest Warrant.
3. Upon the request of the Court, a State Party shall consult with the Court, either generally or with respect to a specific matter, regarding any requirements under its national law that may apply under paragraph 2 (e). During the consultations, the State Party shall advise the Court of the specific requirements of its national law.
Where a State Party receives a request under this Part in relation to which it identifies problems which may impede or prevent the execution of the request, that State shall consult with the Court without delay in order to resolve the matter. Such problems may include, inter alia:
(a) Insufficient information to execute the request;
(b) In the case of a request for surrender, the fact that despite best efforts, the person sought cannot be located or that the investigation conducted has determined that the person in the requested State is clearly not the person named in the warrant; or
(c) The fact that execution of the request in its current form would require the requested State to breach a pre-existing treaty obligation undertaken with respect to another State.
