Kadar uradniki in drugi spremljevalci, ki jih je pooblastila Komisija, ugotovijo, da se podjetje upira preiskavi, vključno z zapečatenjem poslovnih prostorov, knjig ali dokumentacije, odrejenim skladno s tem členom, jim zadevna država članica pošlje potrebno pomoč, pri čemer za izvajanje preiskave po potrebi zahteva pomoč policije ali drugega ustreznega izvršilnega organa.
Where the officials and other accompanying persons authorised by the Commission find that an undertaking opposes an inspection, including the sealing of business premises, books or records, ordered pursuant to this Article, the Member State concerned shall afford them the necessary assistance, requesting where appropriate the assistance of the police or of an equivalent enforcement authority, so as to enable them to conduct their inspection.
