29If, on completion of its examination, the competent authority of the Member State of importation finds that all the abovementioned criteria are satisfied, the proprietary medicinal product to be imported must be regarded as having already been placed on the market in the Member State of importation and, consequently, must be entitled to benefit from the marketing authorization issued for the proprietary medicinal product already on the market, unless there are countervailing considerations relating to the effective protection of the life and health of humans.
