We deal with a suitable weak solution $(bold v,p)$ to the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain $Omegasubsetmathbb R^3$. We refine the criterion for the local regularity of this solution at the point $(bold fx_0,t_0)$, which uses the $L^3$-norm of $bold v$ and the $L^{3/2}$-norm of $p$ in a shrinking backward parabolic neighbourhood of $(bold x_0,t_0)$. The refinement consists in the fact that only the values of $bold v$, respectively $p$, in the exterior of a space-time paraboloid with vertex at $(bold x_0,t_0)$, respectively in a "small" subset of this exterior, are considered. The consequence is that a singularity cannot appear at the point $(bold x_0,t_0)$ if $bold v$ and $p$ are "smooth" outside the paraboloid.
