(3) Articles 4 and 17 TEU assign certain roles to the Commission and the Member States. Articles 258 and 279 TFEU provide for procedures for the enforcement by the Union institutions of obligations arising under the Treaties. Detecting and, where appropriate, addressing such difficulties in the establishment and functioning of the internal market in an efficient and effective manner requires timely access to comprehensive, accurate and reliable quantitative and qualitative market information. This is particularly the case whenre the Commission acts as guardian of the Treaties, pursuant to Article 17(1) TEU, which entrusts the Commission with the tasks tof ensureing the application of the Treaties, and of the measures adopted by the institutions pursuant to them, and tof overseeing the application of Union law. As established by the Court of Justice on numerous occasions in the context of infringement proceedings under Article 258 TFEU, it is the Commission’s responsibility to place before the Court of Justice all the relevant factual information to prove the existence of an infringement. Such information may include in certain instances market information, needed to enable the Court of Justice to establish whether the Union law has been breached.

(10) Such empowerment does not aim at creating new enforcement powers for the Commission such as, in particular, the powers to pursue infringements of Union law in the internal market area against individual market participants. Its purpose is rather to provide the Commission with additional fact-finding ability where this is strictly required for performing the task entrusted to the Commission by the TFEU to ensure the application of Union law in relation to the aim of establishing and ensuring the functioning of the internal market. In the interest of the establishment of a fully functioning internal market, it is appropriate to clarify that such empowerment covers also those economic sectors within the internal market for which TFEU has foreseen common policies: agriculture and fisheries (excluding the conservation of marine biological resources), transport, environment and energy.
