Pleas in law and main arguments

The applicant contests the Decision of the Committee on Petitions of the European Parliament of 20 June 2007, by which the petition submitted by the applicant in accordance with Article 191(6) of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament was put on the file without further action being taken. The applicant's petition relates to the partial recovery of the candidate's remuneration paid during his pre-service training for the career of senior general administrator with the municipality of Brunswick.

In support of his application, the applicant submits that the contested decision is not sufficiently well founded. In addition, he points out that the requirements for submission of a petition under Article 194 EC are met, in particular that it relates to a matter which comes within the Community's fields of activity and which affects him directly.
