29 It follows that Ireland, as intervener, had no standing to raise a plea of inadmissibility and the Court is thus not bound to adjudicate on such a plea (see Case C-313/90 CIRFS and Others v Commission [1993] ECR I-1125, paragraphs 20 to 22, and Case C-225/91 Matra v Commission [1993] ECR I-3203, paragraph 12).

22 It follows that the interveners were not entitled to raise the objection of inadmissibility, and that the Court is therefore not bound to consider the pleas on which they rely.
