80In the light of all the foregoing, the answer to the question referred is that Article 3(1) of Regulation No 604/2013, Article 4(1) and Article 13 of Directive 2011/95, and Article 10(2) and (3) and Article 33(1) and (2)(a) of Directive 2013/32 must be interpreted as meaning that where the competent authority of a Member State cannot exercise the option available to it under the last of those provisions to reject as inadmissible an application for international protection made by an applicant, to which another Member State has already granted such protection, on account of a serious risk that that applicant will be subjected, in that other Member State, to inhuman or degrading treatment, within the meaning of Article 4 of the Charter, that authority must carry out a new, individual, full and up-to-date examination of that application in a new international protection procedure conducted in accordance with Directives 2011/95 and 2013/32. Within the framework of that examination, that authority must nevertheless take full account of the decision of that other Member State to grant international protection to that applicant and of the elements on which that decision is based.
