for not renewing his contract. The Tribunal finds that as early as 29 March 1983, the Applicant was aware that no funds were currently available for an extension of his post and therefore further appointment at the expiration of his contract on 30 June 1983, was not feasible. Moreover, on 3 September 1983, in a letter to the Director of TCD, the Applicant himself stated that the Regional Programme Officer for Latin America, in meetings in London, informed him that there would not be sufficient funds in 1984 to employ three advisers. In another letter dated 10 November 1983, apprising him of the possibility that his post could be curtailed for lack of resources, the Director of TCD explained fully the unfortunate reality of the possible insufficiency of funds and referred to the strenuous efforts to obtain them to continue support for the Maritime Infrastructure Project, with the full complement of Co-ordinators/Specialists. Thus, the Applicant was aware of the compelling reason for the non-renewal of his contract, namely the insufficiency of funds. VIII.The Applicant also complains about the abrupt way in which the decision to abandon a proposal to transfer him to the Caribbean was taken. After reviewing the documents concerning the proposed- 13 - Caribbean post, the Tribunal finds that: 1.This issue had a long history and serious efforts were made by IMO to establish the post, but a number of governments and organizations were also involved; 2.The choice of the Applicant to head the Caribbean post was a genuine choice, because of his previous stay and visits in the area, and the conviction of IMO that he could be more effective in the English-speaking countries of the sub-region; 3.The JAB was correct in believing that the complications encountered in this respect by IMO were beyond the Respondent's control and no fault could be attributed to the Respondent.
**Analysis**
The text appears to be related to a professional dispute between an individual and an organization, likely an international organization, regarding the non-renewal of a contract. The contract was related to a specific project or position, and the non-renewal was due to insufficient funds. The text does not provide information about the specific project or organization, but it does mention the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and the Trinity College Dublin (TCD). Given the international context and the mention of a specific organization, it is likely that the text is related to international cooperation or development.
