44It is true, as the Court stated in paragraph 18 of that judgment, that, when the Court is hearing an appeal under Article 56 of the Statute of the Court of Justice of the European Union, it is required, if need be of its own motion, to adjudicate on the admissibility of an action for annulment and therefore on the public-policy plea based on non-compliance with the condition set out in the fourth paragraph of Article 263 TFEU, according to which an applicant may seek annulment of a decision not addressed to him only if he is directly and individually concerned by it.
