53The adoption of a legislative measure by the Council cannot constitute either a breach of the obligation imposed on the Member States to guarantee the application and effectiveness of Community law, the defence by each Member State of its interests within the Council manifestly not falling within the scope of that obligation, or a breach of the duty of sincere cooperation attaching to the Council as an institution.
