54Finally, since the admissibility of the action is a matter of public policy which must be raised by the General Court, the adoption of an order under Article 126 of the Rules of Procedure of the General Court is not subject to the defendant contesting the admissibility of the action. Accordingly, in the present case, it is immaterial, for the purposes of assessing the manifest nature of the inadmissibility, that the SRB, the defendant in the action before the General Court, did not plead that the action was out of time (see, to that effect, order of 17 July 2014, Melkveebedrijf Overenk and Others v Commission, C‑643/13 P, not published, EU:C:2014:2118, paragraph 38).
