Decision

THE COMPLAINT IS DISMISSED.

Consideration 3

Extract:

The complainant was employed by the organization for eight years in a project. His appointment was due to expire on 31 July 1981. On 4 June the organization confirmed his termination. The position was not filled again. About a year later, the complainant consulted a lawyer with the result that on 9 June 1982 he filed a claim for an indemnity due to the fact that his position was abolished. A claim of this form cannot possibly succeed.
