         Form of order sought
      
      The applicant claims that the Court should:
      
                  —
               
               
                  annul the decision of 20 May 2020 not to grant the applicant an expatriation allowance;
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  order the Commission to pay the costs.
               
            
         Pleas in law and main arguments
      
      In support of the action, the applicant relies on a single plea in law, alleging infringement of Article 4(1)(b) of Annex VII to the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union, in so far as, during the ten-year reference period, he was based in Belgium exclusively to carry out his duties for the European institutions, while keeping the permanent centre of his interests in France, where he has lived since the age of four, and where his family and in-laws are based.
