80Meanwhile, the Commission is bound, within the context of that framework, to determine whether or not the measures adopted by the Member States are justified, in law and in fact (see paragraphs 20 and 46 above). As the EU courts have already held, in the context of Council Directive 91/414/EEC of 15 July 1991 concerning the placing of plant protection products on the market (OJ 1991 L 230, p. 1), which establishes an institutional and procedural framework which is admittedly different from that under Directive 2006/42 but which pursues a similar goal, in order to be able to effectively pursue the objective assigned to it, bearing in mind the complex technical assessments which it must undertake, the Commission must be recognised as enjoying a broad discretion (judgments of 18 July 2007 in Industrias Químicas del Vallés v Commission, C‑326/05 P, ECR, EU:C:2007:443, paragraph 75, and of 9 September 2011 and Dow AgroSciences and Others v Commission, T‑475/07, ECR, EU:T:2011:445, paragraphs 86 and 150). The courts have also recognised that the Commission has such a power when it is called upon to review measures taken by a Member State in the context not of a directive containing a safeguard clause within the meaning of Article 114(10) TFEU, as in the present case, but in the context of the framework provided under Article 114(4) to Article 114(6) TFEU (judgment of 6 November 2008 in Netherlands v Commission, C‑405/07 P, ECR, EU:C:2008:613, paragraph 54).
