Abstract
Community law now constitutes an integral part of the member-countries’ legal system. The courts in those countries must implement Community law in litigation within their own jurisdiction where Community law requires. A number of treaty provisions impose, in binding and self-sufficient terms, obligations on the member-states, the acceptance of which confers both rights and obligations on individuals which must be upheld by the municipal courts in those states.
