The Agency shall give priority, but not exclusively, to dossiers meeting at least one of the following criteria:
(a) the dossier contains information in Article 10(a)(iv), (vi) and/or (vii) submitted separately as per Article 11(3); or
(b) the dossier is for a substance manufactured or imported in quantities of one tonne or more per year and does not meet
the requirements of Annex VII applying under either Article 12(1)(a) or (b), as the case may be; or
(c) the dossier is for a substance listed in the Community rolling action plan referred to in Article 44(2).
6. Any third party may electronically submit information to the Agency relating to substances that appear on the list referred to in Article 28(4). The Agency shall consider this information together with the information submitted according to Article 124 when checking and selecting dossiers.
