38It is admittedly true that, by a note of 3 April 2003, that head of unit requested the renewal of the respondent's contract. However, it is apparent from the clear language of Article 90(1) of the Staff Regulations, reproduced in paragraph 34 of this judgment, that only persons covered by those Staff Regulations can submit such a request. A note sent by one Commission department to another does not therefore fall within the framework set out by that provision. In addition, it is apparent that such a note may not be treated in the same way as a request covered under that provision, otherwise the procedure laid down in that provision might be circumvented.
