The applicants, defendants in an appeal on points of law lodged by the Greek State, invited the Court of Cassation by their written submissions to seek a preliminary ruling from the CJEU on the correct interpretation of Council Directive 1999/70/EC of 28 June 1999 concerning the framework agreement on fixed-term work concluded by ETUC, UNICE and CEEP and its application on their case. The domestic court granted the Greek State’s appeal on points of law by decision 379/2018, which was finalised on 27   February   2018, without mentioning the applicants’ referral request and without giving reasons for its refusal to seek a preliminary ruling.     QUESTION TO THE PARTIES Did the fact that the Court of Cassation gave no reasons for its refusal of the applicants’ request to seek a preliminary ruling with the CJEU render the proceedings unfair, in violation of Art 6 § 1 of the Convention (see Sanofi Pasteur v. France , no.   25137/16 , §§ 67-68, 13 February 2020, and Georgiou v.   Greece , no. 57378/18, 14 March 2023)?   APPENDIX LIST OF APPLICANTS   No. Applicant’s Name Year of birth Nationality Place of residence 1.
