The applicant's employment was governed by a series of fixed term contracts, each with a clear expiry date and no automatic renewal clause. The last contract expired on 30th September 2019, and the applicant was notified accordingly. There was no legal basis for treating the extensions as a continuation of the original five-year contract or for expecting further renewal. The termination followed the law and the terms of the contract.
