39As the Court held in its judgment in Case 25/68Schertzer v Parliament [1977] ECR 1729, the basis of the relationship between a member of the temporary staff and the institution concerned is the ‘contract of employment as a member of the temporary staff’. Moreover, the justification for the unilateral termination of such a contract of employment, which is expressly provided for by Article 47 of the Conditions of Employment, lies in that contract of employment and there is no need therefore for a statement of reasons; it is in this respect that the position of a member of the temporary staff differs fundamentally from that of an official under the Staff Regulations.
