Pleas in law and main arguments
In support of his action, the applicant, in addition to putting forward very similar pleas to those raised in connection with Case F-5/05 (1) and raising the same pleas of unlawfulness as invoked in that case, also contends that Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 723/2004 of 22 March 2004 amending the Staff Regulations of officials of the European Communities and the Conditions of Employment of other servants of the European Communities (2) is unlawful as to the part which inserts Article 1 of Annex IX to the Staff Regulations.
