45It follows from the case-law of the Court that the Commission is authorised to adopt all the measures which are necessary or useful for the implementation of the basic legislation, provided that they are not contrary to such legislation or to the implementing legislation adopted by the Council of the European Union (see, inter alia, judgment of 11 November 1999, Söhl & Söhlke, C‑48/98, EU:C:1999:548, paragraph 36 and the case-law cited). In that regard, the Commission has a measure of discretion (see, to that effect, judgments of 8 March 2007, Thomson and Vestel France, C‑447/05 and C‑448/05, EU:C:2007:151, paragraph 25, and of 13 December 2007, Asda Stores, C‑372/06, EU:C:2007:787, paragraph 45).
