Decision

1. The Organization shall pay the complainant damages in the sum of 50,000 French francs for its failure to execute point 2 of the ruling in Judgment 1553.
2. It shall pay her 10,000 French francs in costs.
3. If the Organization fails to execute point 2 of the ruling in Judgment 1553 or to pay her those two amounts within thirty days of the date of delivery of this judgment, it shall pay her a penalty of 25,000 French francs for each further month of delay.

Consideration 7

Extract:

"The Organization submits that its application for review had the effect of suspending the execution of the judgment. The plea is unfounded. Article VI of the Tribunal's Statute states that its judgments are 'final and without appeal'. There is no provision in its Statute or Rules for any stay in the execution of a judgment."
