43It follows from the Courts settled case-law that the obligations arising from Community directives are binding, inter alia, on bodies or entities which are subject to the authority or control of a public authority or the State (see, to that effect, Case 152/84 Marshall [1986] ECR 723, paragraph 49; Case 103/88 Fratelli Costanzo [1989] ECR 1839, paragraphs 30 and 31; Case C-188/89 Foster and Others [1990] ECR I-3313, paragraph 18; order in Case C-297/03 Sozialhilfeverband Rohrbach [2005] ECR I-4305, paragraph 27). Consequently, the obligation to presume that medical devices which meet the harmonised standards and bear the CE marking comply with the requirements of Directive 93/42 extends to Venizelio-Pananio in its capacity as a body governed by public law.
