54The personal interview on the admissibility of the application, provided for in Article 14(1) and Article 34(1) of the Procedures Directive, is therefore of fundamental importance in order to ensure that Article 33(2)(a) of that directive is in fact applied in full compliance with Article 4 of the Charter. The personal interview enables the determining authority to assess the applicant’s specific situation and degree of vulnerability and satisfy itself that the applicant has been invited to set out all of the considerations which are capable of demonstrating that being sent back to the Member State that previously granted international protection would expose him or her to a risk of treatment that is contrary to Article 4 of the Charter.
