I found the answer to my own question. Per the Commission, "Establishment of a rapid exchange of information system (RAPEX) for rapid exchange of information on products posing a "serious and immediate" risk, when a Member State adopts or decides to adopt measures to prevent, restrict or impose specific conditions on the marketing or use of such products. Details of the functioning of the system are set out in an annex to the Directive."
