(23) SIS should contain alerts on missing persons to ensure their protection or to prevent threats to public security. Issuing an alert in SIS for children at risk of abduction (i.e. in order to prevent a future harm that has not yet taken place as in the case of children who are at risk of parental abduction) should be limited, therefore it is appropriate to provide for strict and appropriate safeguards. In cases of children, these alerts and the corresponding procedures should serve the best interests of the child having regard to Article 24 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child of 20 November 1989. Law enforcement authorities' decisions on the follow up to an alert related to a child shall be taken in cooperation with child protection authorities and the national hotline for missing children shall be informed. In case of missing unaccompanied minors the purpose for competent authorities to access the data inserted in SIS shall be to protect children and their best interest;
