(8)The establishment of the ESAs should therefore be accompanied by the development of a single rulebook to ensure consistent harmonisation and uniform application and thus contribute to the even more effective functioning of the internal market and the more effective implementation of micro-level supervision. The regulations establishing the ESFS provide that the ESAs may develop draft technical standards in the areas specifically set out in the relevant legislation, to be submitted to the Commission for adoption in accordance with Articles 290 and 291 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) by means of delegated or implementing acts. Whereas Directive 2010/78/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council 7 has identified a first set of such areas, this Directive should identify a further set of areas, in particular for Directives 2003/71/EC and 2009/138/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council 8 , for Regulation (EC) No 1060/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council 9 and for Regulations (EU) No 1094/2010 and (EU) No 1095/2010.
