Consideration 12
Extract:
"In Judgment 3077 the Tribunal held that an appeal board had been wrong, when defining its own competence, to rely on the Tribunal's case law concerning its limited power of review, and that a complainant was right in saying that the board was not an administrative court whose sole responsibility in principle was to review the lawfulness of contested decisions."

Consideration 9
Extract:
The defendant [...] asserts that the complaint is irreceivable because it was not signed by the complainant herself and the person who is presented as her agent has not submitted a power of attorney, as required by Article 5, paragraph 2, of the Rules [of the Tribunal]. The complainant states that a power of attorney was filed with the Registry of the Tribunal, which acknowledged it, and this has been verified. This objection to receivability must therefore be dismissed as factually unsound.
